نویسنده
چکیده
When the term “bioethics” was coined, both at its historical origin (in the works of the Lutheran pastor Jahr in 1926–27) and in its independent new birth (in the work of the American oncologist Potter in 1970), its meaning was that of a philosophical outlook in which medicine, biology, ecology and human values were brought to an integration from which the ethical imperative derived to respect and protect the world of “life”. That approach potentially encompassed domains like those of medical ethics, animal ethics, environmental ethics, ethics of biotechnologies.
