Medical Ethics
Peter Shorett is the co-editor of
Rights and Liberties in the Biotech
Age: Why We Need a Genetic Bill of Rights (2005). The book is a collection
of essays written by prominent university scientists, civil rights lawyers, and
public interest activists who bring their perspectives to issues where science
and civil liberties meet head on. Instead of human rights adapting to
technological change, the authors believe that such rights need to be at the
forefront of any discussion about biomedical and bio-agricultural advances.
