The philosopher as partner: an introduction to the scholarship of Robert M. Veatch.

A diverse group of scholars reflect on the scholarship of Robert M. Veatch, the breadth of which is unmatched in modern day bioethics. Essays were written by both philosophers and clinician-philosophers, by contemporaries and mentees. They span the breadth of Bob's work and include analyses of his ideas about death, dying and organ transplantation, human experimentation and research ethics, disability, equality and justice, the doctor-patient relationship, the history of bioethics, as well as his pedagogical approach to teaching bioethics to clinicians across the health care spectrum. Recognition of Bob's influence in the modern field of bioethics and the challenges that persist are clearly identified.
