Who Decides?
The question of whether a young woman should be allowed to terminate a pregnancy without her parents' knowledge has been one of the most contentious issues of the post Roe v. Wade era.

Compiling articles from well-established bioethical thinkers, Jecker et al. have created an edited volume unique in its scope of topics addressed.

As a natural consequence, Catholics have regularly addressed moral issues relating to health care long before the term "bioethics" was coined.
