On January 21 at 6 p.m. we will present the book "Horizontes de la Bioética", a publication made from the papers of the II International Congress of Bioethics. The event will feature the participation of: Miquel Domènech, Bernabé Robles, Ester Busquets and Begoña Román.
The book, edited by Herder, reflects on the impact of biotechnologies, the challenges in the pedagogy of bioethics, the ethics applied to the pandemic situation and the taboo on death in cases such as transhumanism and euthanasia. The authors' goal is to promote critical thinking, through an essential resource for academics, health professionals, educators, and anyone interested in understanding and addressing the complex bioethical issues that define our time.
