Les fondements éthiques de la bioéthique
La bioéthique est une discipline très jeune qui n'a pas encore trouvé de bases solides. Elle est née au moment où des nouveaux problèmes, jusque-là inconnus, sont apparus en sciences biomédicales. Les préoccupations de l'éthique médicale étaient totalement tournées vers le médecin en évaluant ce qu'il devait faire et ce qu'il ne devait pas faire face à un(e) malade. La nouvelle donne est que le malade a également quelque chose à dire, surtout s'il s'agit de sa maladie.
L'intérêt de ce livre est de montrer justement que la bioéthique a tout intérêt à reposer sur des bases philosophiques éthiques. La bioéthique ne se présente pas comme une panacée. C'est une sorte de starting-block pour mieux cerner les questions éthiques que nous rencontrons spécialement dans les soins de santé, l'environnement et les sciences médicales. Partir d'une base philosophique, c'est rendre clairs des concepts fondamentaux que l'on utilise. Trois concepts que l'on utilise fréquemment en bioéthique sont analysés ici: la loi naturelle, la justice et la conscience.
Mais la philosophie se préoccupe également de donner des explications sur nos croyances et sur la nature de la réalité, de l'univers. Il ne s'agit pas uniquement de nous comprendre nous-mêmes et de comprendre ce qui nous entoure, mais il est également question de comprendre chaque personne raisonnable dans ses relations avec les autres. Parmi les courants philosophiques qui sont analysés, il y a le principalisme, l'éthique théologique, les théories déontologiques, l'utilitarisme, et l'éthique de la vertu.

The ethical Basics of Bioethics
Bioethics took shape at a time medical ethics was at a crossroad and could any longer meet new problems which were till then unknown. Medical ethics was chiefly concern with problems physicians ought to do in front of their patients. The new order concedes that the patient has to keep a wary eye on everything relating to his/her health.
This book gains its significance in showing that bioethics rests on ethical philosophical foundations. Bioethics is not a cure-all. It is rather a philosophical starting point of reflections that leads to investigating ethical problems in health care, environment and in medical science. One of the main concerns of a philosopher is to scrutinize and clarify used basic concepts. Three mostly used ethical concepts are analyzed, i.e. natural law, justice, and conscience.
The philosopher is also concerned with beliefs of man and the nature of the world. The question is not only to understand ourselves as human beings and the world around us, but to understand also each rational person in his/her relations to others. Among the current philosophical trends discussed here are principlism, theological ethics, deontological ethics (Kantianism), utilitarianism, and virtue ethics.
