Routledge Advances in the History of Bioethics


About the Series

Routledge Advances in the History of Bioethics aims to act as a nexus for debates typically in collections of diverse but explicitly interrelated essays about the histories and literatures of bioethical debates from a wide spectrum of disciplines, methodologies, periods and geographical contexts. This series champions conversations from within interdisciplinary collision spaces, considering the effects of physical and metaphysical environments upon factual and fictional spaces.
