  • Questions why some bioethical issues fail to attract the attention of bioethicists
  • Investigates the effect of the rise of bioethics in the field of medical sociology
  • An essential text for medical sociologists, medical anthropologists, bioethicists, and to the increasingly large audience of those interested in the relationship between the social sciences and bioethics
