Perplexités sur la bioéthique officielle

In a provocative and ironical way, the author questions the ambiguities of contemporary bioethics. Personal attention to the concrete, suffering patient, health policies and urgent challenges in the realm of social, economical and international justice seem to be sometimes relegated in the second place, because of the exaggerated fascination in the public and in the medias for topics connected with the beginning and the end of life.
