Reviews

'The strength of this volume is its timeliness and humanistic core, as manifested in the deep concern for the good of humankind, which must serve, the authors agree, as the goal of human research. This book is recommended for scholars and practitioners interested in bioethics, legal studies, and research methodologies and regulation.' M. Uebel, Choice
