Advancements in technology within medicine present society with new ethical challenges. Medical ethics has already provided some strategic solutions to the questions that have come up because of this, but does not yet utilize the potential that numerous philosophical theories offer. The book at hand closes this gap in that it not only focuses on specific challenges (such as enhancement, anti-aging, as well as individualized medicine, psychiatry, or telemedicine), but also combines these with innovative approaches from the philosophical repertoire in order to develop new solutions. As a result, this book manages to animate the active relationship between Philosophy and Medicine to the reader in an inspiring manner.
