This fourth edition of An Introduction to Bioethics provides an introductory survey of various bioethical issues facing society from beginning of life issues to end of life issues, and several of them in between. This presentation begins with introducing the idea of bioethics and connecting it to how technology challenges our moral senses. This follows with readers being introduced to the major theories and vocabulary of bioethics. Following these general issues, Shannon and Kockler take the reader through various issues while presenting multiple perspectives. The authors include hotly debated topics such as abortion, euthanasia, and stem cell technology. The topics cover major areas of focus in the field of bioethics from the beginning of life to the end of life, including biotechnology, organ transplantation, human subject research, and a whole earth ethic. Once readers finish the book, they should be oriented to significant debates in bioethics, have the vocabulary to enter into a thoughtful discussion on the topics, and begin to formulate their own judgments on some of the most controversial aspects of contemporary society. The book can serve as an excellent text for undergraduate studies by providing a firm foundation to launch into class discussions and assignments. The bibliographies and references provide readers with information on some of the seminal texts in bioethics, which gives An Introduction to Bioethics a value for the reader who is just beginning the journey into the tumultuous field of bioethics.Binding Type: Paperback

protection plan is easy.
The protection plan worked on my coffee pot. It was just over 14 months and started to leak. I first called amazon and they sent me a link to the protection plan. It was very easy to use. I received a Amazon gift card instead of a replacement. The price of the coffee pot had increased so you will receive the lower option. I did receive the total cost of the pot at the time I purchased it.

Great customer service.
I’m really happy with the appliance protection plan I got for my toaster. It was easy to set up, affordable, and gives me peace of mind. The customer service was also friendly and helpful. Definitely worth it!

I am satisfied because Asurion's response was quick, and they immediately refunded my money, so I can make the purchase again and protect it with Asurion again.

Fast and easy refund.
I purchased an air fryer and got a 3 year warranty on it from Asirion. The air fryer stopped working and I was expecting the warranty process to be complicated and didn’t have high hopes for getting a replacement. I was surprised though, not only was the website easy to navigate and user friendly, they responded immediately. I got a printable return postage receipt, dropped off the air fryer at a UPS store, and within a couple of days got a full refund in my Amazon account. Great fast service.
