Sinopsis

This book questions the notions ofáperson,ápersonality,ádignity, and other connected notions such asá(informed) consent, andádiscusses new perspectives on categories that allow ethical debates in medicine to overcome morals and ordinary religious schemes. The book states that one has to be careful when thinking about situations in terms of notions and principles that have been obtained in similar situations. Though this book is mostly philosophical, it is also of great practical interest to healthcare givers. It warns caregivers not to rely too much on notions such asáperson,áautonomy, andáconsent, which are supposedly firm but can be proven to be unreliable in spite of appearances. Furthermore, this work warns against a narrow anthropologisation of ethics which would make technophobian positions unavoidable. On the contrary, this book is open toárobotics and offers - among other things - a sustained exploration of the notion of intimacy.
