I find this book useful in my research lab; I have used various chapters as assigned readings for our weekly discussion groups, especially when I have a new crop of undergraduate students joining my lab. The book raises good issues, gets my students thinking about their involvement in the research process, and what it means to invest themselves to the point of having ownership in a project as opposed to being a technician. The issues of data ownership and record keeping are also good. Sure, I could just raise these issues myself, but our discussions are better after the students have read the assigned chapter and had a chance to think about the issues. I've ordered my own copy so I don't have to keep checking out the copy from the library.

This was a text for a class I am taking -- I have found it to be easy to understand and helpful.

I bought this book for a class that I was taking in Bioethics. At first glance the book looked very dry. But actually it was well organized and well written. I don't know if I would have read this text without it being a requirement but for the class it was a good choice. I also enjoyed the case studies that were at the end of every chapter.

I purchased this book for a class. I like it so much that I kept it. It is full of interesting arguments on scientific ethics...really makes one think!

Bought it for an ethics class and haven't really read much of it, but from what I read its pretty dry. The only good part is the section with case studies at the end of the chapter.
