摘要：Military Medical Ethics for the 21st Century is an extraordinary text that fi lls a yawning gap in two existing fi elds – bioethics and military ethics – while at the same time defi ning an important new sub-discipline – military medical ethics – and pointing the way for future scholars to continue to explore its vital issues.As editors Michael L.Gross and Don Carrick explain in their compelling introduction,the relationship between medicine and warfare has never been more complex.Not only have the realities of modern combat (including evolving forms of unconventional and asymmetric confl ict,technological and biological enhancements,greater global transparency,and an expansion of international law) created new challenges for medical professionals working within the military context,but there is also an entire sphere of emerging medical technology with military applications.
