Arleen L.F. Salles, María Julia Bertomeu
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2001
This book presents a unique view of the current state of development of bioethics in Latin America.

These studies contribute to an understanding of Latin American thought, and they make possible a transcultural dialogue on bioethical issues.
