African American bioethics : culture, race, and identity

Do people of differing ethnicities, cultures, and races view medicine and bioethics differently? And, if they do, should they? This book explores how medicine and ethics accommodate differing cultural and racial norms, suggesting profound implications for growing minority groups in the United States.
