Aktualno sagledavanje Potterove globalne bioetike kao mosta između kliničke (personalizirane) i javnozdravstvene etike

In the context of modern scientific and technological developments in biomedicine and health care, and the potential consequences of their application on humans and the environment, Potter’s global bioethics concept resurfaces.

Aktualizirajući izvorne Potterove misli na pojedine bioetičke teme ukazuje se na svevremenost dviju njegovih knjiga koje i danas predstavljaju okosnicu svjetske bioetičke literure: “Bioethics – Bridge to the Future” te “Global Bioethics: Building on the Leopold Legacy”.
