In the Fifth Edition of Bioethics and Public Health Law, financial and ethical issues are integrated into a concise and engaging treatment. This book is based on Part I “The Provider and the Patient” and Part II “The Patient, Provider, and the State,” from Health Care Law and Ethics, Tenth Edition, and adds material on organ transplantation, research ethics, and other topics. The complex relationship between patients, providers, the state, and public health institutions are explored through high-interest cases, informative notes, and compelling problems.

New to the Fifth Edition:
  • Thoroughly revised coverage of:
    • Reproductive rights and justice
    • Public health law
  • Extensive coverage of issues relating to COVID-19
  • Supreme Court decisions on abortion
  • Discussion of emerging topics, such as:
    • Restrictions on medical abortion, interstate travel for abortion, and conflicts with EMTALA
    • Artificial Intelligence
    • Cutting-edge reproductive technologies (such as mitochondrial replacement techniques, uterus transplants, and In Vitro Gametogenesis)
    • Changes to organ allocation rules and attempts to revise “brain death” and the “dead donor rule” in organ transplantation
    • Religious liberty questions that emerged in public health cases during the COVID-19 pandemic
Benefits for instructors and students:
  • Comprehensive yet concise, this casebook covers all aspects of bioethics and public health law.
  • Integrates public policy and ethics issues from a relational perspective.
  • Clear notes provide smooth transitions between cases and background information.
