H.A. Ten Have Livres

This book discusses the Convention on the application of medicine and life sciences, emphasizing the dignity and identity of all humans. It highlights principles like informed consent, equitable healthcare access, and prohibitions against discrimination and financial gain from human bodies. Controversial bioethical issues, including embryo research, are noted but not fully addressed.

This volume explores the intersection of knowledge growth and its impact on medical practice, stemming from a conference in Maastricht in 1987. Edited by Stuart Spicker, Henk ten Have, and Gerrit Kimsma, it includes contributions from that meeting and aims to foster a lasting European tradition in the philosophy of medicine and health care.
