AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL HEALTH MINISTER LAUNCHES FORD BOOK ON STEM CELLS
 
SYDNEY: 24th February '04 --  The Hon Tony Abbott, Australia's Federal Minister for Health , on  24 February, launched in Sydney the  book - Stem Cells: Science, Medicine, Law & Ethics, edited and authored by Dr Norman Ford SDB and Michael Herbert.  The Minister praised the initiative to publish this timely book because Australia's laws on embryonic stem research come up for review over the coming year.  The public and educators at every level need accurate scientific and medical information on stem cells as well as a sound ethical evaluation of destructive research involving human embryos, even if it is done  for medical research or therapeutic purposes.

 

 The book was published jointly by St Pauls Publications in collaboration with Caroline Chisholm Centre for Health Ethics, whose Director is Salesian priest Dr Norman Ford.  For more information on the book and how to order it see the Centre's new Web address

www.chisholm.healthethics.com.au

 

This is also a valuable web site for secondary teachers and students who are interested in bioethics and health ethics generally.  At this site readers may obtain for free the latest issue of the journal - Chisholm Health Ethics Bulletin, plus all previous issues.
