Synopsis "Practical Reasoning in Bioethics "

This is a valuable clarification, re-statement and defence of principlism as an approach to applied ethics. It is strongly recommended to many teachers of bioethics..." ―Journal of the American Medical AssociationChildress’ book deserves careful study by all concerned with the ethical aspect of contemporary biomedical challenges." ―Science Books & FilmsAn ideal supplement for a graduate seminar on bioethics or for upper-division undergraduates needing more information in this area." ―ChoiceIn these revised and updated essays, renowned ethicist James F. Childress highlights the role of imagination in practical reasoning through various metaphors and analogies. His discussion of ethical problems contributes to a better understanding of the scope and strength of different moral principles, such as justice, beneficence, and respect for autonomy. At the same time, Childress demonstrates the major role of metaphorical, analogical, and symbolic reasoning in biomedical ethics, largely in conjunction with, rather than in opposition to, principled reasoning.

James Franklin Childress es un destacado filósofo y teólogo estadounidense, reconocido como una figura pionera en el campo de la ética biomédica. Profesor emérito de la Universidad de Virginia, donde ocupó la cátedra John Allen Hollingsworth de Ética, también impartió clases en estudios religiosos, políticas públicas y educación médica. Su trayectoria incluye contribuciones significativas en comités nacionales sobre políticas éticas en salud y trasplantes.

Coautor junto a Tom L. Beauchamp de la obra seminal Principios de ética biomédica —conocida en español como Principios de ética biomédica—, un texto fundamental que establece los cuatro principios clave: autonomía, no maleficencia, beneficencia y justicia, influyendo profundamente en la enseñanza y práctica de la bioética mundial. Otras publicaciones relevantes incluyen Practical Reasoning in Bioethics y coediciones como Organ Donation: Opportunities for Action, enfocadas en dilemas éticos contemporáneos en salud pública y decisiones clínicas. Su legado se consolida en el análisis riguroso de cuestiones morales en medicina y políticas sanitarias.
