1 Bioethics PHL283H5S Summer 2014 M, W 2-5pm in NE 160 INSTRUCTOR: Daniel Hooley daniel.hooley@utoronto.ca Office location: North Building 268 Office Hours: M, W 12-1pm or by appointment COURSE DESCRIPTION In this course we will look at a variety of ethical issues that arise from the fact that we are embodied beings who are conceived, born, develop into adulthood, grow old, and die. A host of interesting and difficult ethical questions arise in all of these stages of life. Some of the questions concern how we, as individuals, ought to live. Is abortion morally permissible? Does death always harm us? Or can we sometimes benefit from death? And if so, is suicide morally permissible? Do we ever have a duty to die? Other questions that we will look at concern a different level of analysis. Here our focus is on what the law or public policy ought to say on these issues, and the ethics of medical practice and scientific research. In this part of the course we will consider what the laws of the state should be with respect to issues like abortion, voluntary and non- voluntary body alterations, physician assisted death, the use of humans and nonhuman animals in biomedical research, and human enhancement. REQUIRED TEXTS All of the readings for the course will be posted online via Blackboard. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Upon successful completion of this course, you can expect to gain a solid understanding of several core bioethical issues. Along with this, another central learning objective for this course is improving your critical thinking skills, primarily as these skills relate to evaluating moral arguments. Below are some of the skills we will practice and strengthen during the course. The ability to read, formulate, understand, and summarize complex philosophical arguments. These skills are perhaps best seen in the ability to clearly and plainly explain moral arguments to a friend or family member. Recognize ambiguous or unclear claims and restate premises and conclusions in a clearer and more precise fashion Identify unstated assumptions central to an argument 1
