Ethics of Sports Medicine

<p>The book aims to establish a critical dialogue between sports ethicists and bioethicists across the range of sporting disciplines at elite level. It will address questions such as:</p><ul> <li>are the increasingly intrusive testing methods of elite sports compatible with the right to autonomy and privacy granted to patients in general medicine?</li> <li>could there be a moral obligation to correct injustices produced by the genetic lottery?</li> <li>how should the goals of sports medicine be viewed from the perspective of rationing scarce health care resources?</li> </ul><p>This book was published as a special issue in <em>Sport Ethics and Philosophy</em>.</p>
