Synopsis
This collection of essays explores themes from ancient Greek philosophy and medicine and their implications for contemporary medicine and bio-medical ethics. Thus the work examines the relationship of two of the most popular areas in the current revival of ethics, namely, classical ethics and biomedical ethics--areas that have seldom been brought together in any serious or sustained way. The essays in this volume are written by established classical scholars and bioethicists.
