George P. Smith, II is a leading figure in the world of medical law and ethics. During his long career he has addressed some of the most important issues in bioethics and has contributed much original thought to the debates in this field. This book celebrates his contribution bringing together his key writings in bioethics. The chapters include previously published material, however, the pieces have been substantially updated to include more recent developments and rewritten drawing out the themes and strands which have run through Professor Smith's thinking over the past fifty years. The book covers topics including: human rights and medical law; the allocation of resources and distributive justice; ethical relativism; science and religion; and public health emergencies. In doing so it offers an excellent overview of the current bioethical issues in medical law in light of recent and ongoing technological developments in medicine. "This collection of essays by one of the world's leading medical lawyers is academic research of the highest quality. With an enviable clarity of thought and force of argument, Professor Smith tackles some of the major issues facing medicine and law today. It is a tour de force by an academic at the height of his powers." Professor Jonathan Herring, University of Oxford.
Scientists are clear that urgent action is needed on climate change, and world leaders agree. Yet climate issues barely trouble domestic politics. This book explores a central dilemma of the climate crisis: science demands urgency; politics turns the other cheek. Is it possible to hope for a democratic solution to climate change? Based on interviews with leading politicians and activists, and the author’s twenty years on the frontline of climate politics, this book explores why climate is such a challenge for political systems, even when policy solutions exist. It argues that more democracy, not less, is needed to tackle the climate crisis, and suggests practical ways forward.
