Bioethics Education in a Global Perspective

Part of the book series: Advancing Global Bioethics ((AGBIO,volume 4))

Abstract

This collection of essays is a sequel of the Inaugural International Conference on Education in Ethics, organized by the International Association for Education in Ethics (IAEE), which took place in Pittsburgh, U.S.A. in May 2012. More than 200 scholars from 33 different countries participated in this conference. Since many of the presentations specifically highlighted the global development of bioethics education, an initiative was taken to elaborate several aspects of this development into chapters for this book.
