Reviews

This volume makes a valuable and original contribution to our understanding of the complex interaction between lawmakers, ethical values, and broader societal interests in the regulation of the emerging technologies. * Roberto Andorno, Medicine, Healthcare and Philosophy *
This is a book of impressive scope and detail and it should have a wide audience. It will encourage the reader to think deeply about the challenges we face as we engage with technology and about our commitment to core moral principles. This book is a 'must-have' for all those interested in bioethics, health law, and theories of regulation. * Belinda Bennett, Journal of Law and Society, Vol 35/4 *
