Editorial Reviews

Review

"Baroness Warnock’s memoir about the highest echelons of committee life offers a surprising amount of enjoyable gossip" -- The Scotsman, February 8, 2003

"She writes with an admirably clear style and sets out the issues dispassionately." -- Oxford Times (UK), March 7, 2003 --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.


Product Description

Mary Warnock, a professional philosopher, gives a frank account of where we stand today on such disturbing matters as hum embryology, genetic engineering, euthanasia and abortion. Governments of both parties have long regarded Warnock as an expert on a wide range of issues on the border between ethics and law and she is considered an ideal person to guide and assist experts.

Although Warnock's views may be shocking to some, her contribution to the debate is always stimulating. Here, her views on weighty ethical issues are set in the context of her own experience of writing reports on them. The framework of her book is autobiographical and therfore highly personal. Nature and Mortality is Warnock at her most perceptive, wise and entertaining.
