Children in Medical Research by Lainie Friedman Ross
Lainie Ross presents a rigorous critical investigation of the development of policy governing the involvement of children in medical research. She examines the shift in focus from protection of medical research subjects, enshrined in post-World War II legislation, to the current era in which access is assuming greater precedence.
[A] very informative publication..The book presents an excellent overview over problems in paediatric research and the ethical and legal issues to be addressed. * M. Brochhausen HOMO *
