In February 2023, public opinion was stirred by a report by a bioethicist who asked to use brain dead women as surrogate mothers. Can we view this as part of a organ donation that is not unlike the kidney or the cornea, as scholars claim? Or should we take a little bit of a change and look at it in the cutting edge of surrogates who have existed for years? Or should we be considered the end of life as a means of birth, which is to make life a natural life for a brain-dead person? To make ethical judgments on this, you need to understand the crossover of a host of arguments and ethical issues of long-term donations, substitute pregnancy, the life-long medical decisions of the brain death, and the public approach to life. This is true when we understand the growing debate about ‘union’ and Hospice, ’ the genetic testing and selective problems of the fetus or embryo level. Today, as medical technology is making its dazzling development, medicine has moved beyond just saving dying lives to a medical practice that actively intervenes in human life, namely, ‘ manipulation ’ and ‘ control ’ life. New ethical tensions in dealing with life have emerged throughout South Korean society. Reflecting this change, the bio-health-heapnative ethic, which has been loved as a textbook in bio-medical ethics for the last 20 years, is the fourth edition of a full revision of new topics and discussions. The revision deals with a broad range of subjects of bio-ethics in a vivid language that is reflected not only by researchers but also by doctors, vets, genetic counselors, lawyers and others who are the best experts in each field.

I think it's good to read about the pregnancy, the organ donation, the extension of life, the health care, and the improvements that we can make on the weak spots and the considerations of the system.

I bought it for my school performance evaluation, and I read it because it's very well related to my career.

I think you might want to read about the nursing or medical interest.
