Twentieth Century Ethics of Human Subjects Research
Twentieth Century Ethics of Human Subjects Research
Twentieth Century Ethics of Human Subjects Research brings together leading historians of medicine to reconstruct and analyse the history of actual experimental practices, the debates on human subjects research, and the attempts to regulate such research during the twentieth century.
The volume addresses cases of medical research in France, Britain, Israel, the United States, and Germany, including the Nazi period; the major developments of ethical debates in these and further national contexts, such as the Soviet Union, the Czech Republic, and Japan. It also explores religious views (Catholic, Jewish) on human experimentation, and the origins and contexts of international codes and declarations.
"Volker Roelckes Überblick über die Geschichte der Menschenversuche im Dritten Reich sei jedem empfohlen, der sich kurz und prägnant über dieses düstere Kapitel deutscher Geschichte informieren möchte." FAZ
"...Für Ärzte, Forscher, Ethiker und interessierte Laien ist das Buch sehr empfehlenswert."
