Missing the Boat on Nanoethics

摘要

In his target article, Fritz Allhoff (2009) presents a lot of useful information concerning what he defines as nanomedicine, especially as it pertains to diagnostics and medical records and treatment. Interested clinicians who want to know where nanotechnology might lead the future practice of medicine should and will be interested in what Allhoff has to say. Good facts of course are essential to the development of good ethics but the same set of facts may result in very different ethical arguments and conclusions for different people.
