Feminist Perspectives in Medical Ethics edited by Helen Bequaert Holmes and Laura Purdy (Book review)

Abstract

Contract pregnancy is one of the five areas examined in 'Feminist Perspectives in Medical Ethics', a welcome re-issue of 2 'Hypatia' special issues, on Feminist Ethics and Medicine, and Ethics and Reproduction, extended by the addition of 'Sex Selection through Prenatal Diagnosis' and 'Women, Foetuses, Medicine and the Law', as well as an article discussing Sara Fry's 'The Role of Caring in a Theory of Nursing Ethics'. It is an excellent and indispensable text, well arranged, with elements of dialogue.
