Textbook... Would be helpful to have page numbers in the table of contents (seems like a duh!) Really enjoyed this one!

This tackles 20 conroversial subjects with someone arguing for and someone arguing against each one. Regardless of which side you may be, learning the arguments for the other side is very helpful to come to a better understanding overall.

Arguments inclue end of life dilemmas, reproduction choices, physician and pharacist integrity, biotechnology uses and development, health care access and protocols, DNA databank, and genetic modifications.
