Yet the moral diversity among feminists has led to political fragmentation  foiling efforts to create policies that are likely to serve the interests of the largest possible number of women. In this remarkable book  Rosemarie Tong offers an approach to feminist bioethics that serves as a catalyst  bringing together varied perspectives on choice  control  and connection. Emphasizing the complexity of feminist debates  she guides feminists toward consensus in thought  cooperation in action  and a world that would have no room for domination and subordination. Tong fairly and comprehensively presents the traditions of both feminist and nonfeminist ethics and bioethics. Although feminist approaches to bioethics derive many insights from nonfeminist ethics and bioethics  Tong shows that their primary source of inspiration is feminist ethics  leading feminist bioethicists to ask the so-called woman question in order to raise womens consciousness about the systems  structures  and relationships that oppress them. Feminist bioethicists are  naturally  committed to acting locally in the worlds of medicine and science. But their different feminist voices must also be raised at the policy table in order to make gender equity a present reality rather than a mere future possibility. Inability to define a plan that guarantees liberation for all women must not prevent feminists from offering a plan that promises to improve the welfare of many women. Otherwise  a perspective less appealing to women may fill the gap.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45789510959157,"sku":"ByrdShop_0813319552","price":43.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780813319551.jpg?v=1784693007","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/feminist-approaches-to-bioethics-theoretical-reflections-and-practical-applications-9780813319551","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
