Neuroethics in Practice

Description: This book explores relevant questions within this multi-faceted and rapidly growing field, and will help to define and foster scholarship within the intersection of neuroethics and clinical neuroscience.

Review Quotes: "This is an excellent contribution to the growing body of literature on neuroethics. I find it useful as a resource and as a discussion starter. Other books, such as The Oxford Handbook of Neuroethics, Illes and Sahakian (Oxford University Press, 2011), have some articles that address issues relevant to practice, but this is the only book dedicated entirely to that purpose." -- DOODY'S

"Neuroethics in Practice: Medicine, Mind, and Society, edited by Anjan Chatterjee and Martha Farah, reflects a shift in the neuroethics field from a relatively circumscribed focus on conflicts arising from scientific inquiry itself to its endpoint of use in the larger culture of health care and society in general. This book would best be used as an indispensable reference for those interested in the ethical considerations specific to neuroscience and its related clinical fields, as well as a starting point for consideration of ethical conflicts encountered frequently in clinical practice. Graduate and medical students would likely benefit the most from the thorough consideration of the many ethical challenges addressed in this book." - Nicolette Gabel and Kenneth M.
