Cross-Cultural Perspectives on the (Im)Possibility of Global Bioethics
Did not finish. I was told to read this by a colleague, but the authors are so convinced of the rightness of their own position (that much modern medical treatment is futile'essentially, though I know this from other writings of theirs rather than getting far enough into this book, because they think people lacking cortical function from brain damage or severe illness no longer count as people) and dismissive bordering on mocking of anyone who disagrees with them (especially attacking religious people, of whom I am one) that I couldn't handle more than the introduction and one chapter.
