"This edited volume brings together an interdisciplinary array of scholars from around the world to discuss disaster bioethics. ... book offers an insightful examination of some neglected topics within the larger study of disasters that warrant inquiry. ... Disaster Bioethics is a much needed contribution to a field that struggles with how to carry out research in extreme situations. It should be read, at the very least, by any scholar or practitioner who wishes to conduct fieldwork in disaster research." (Nathalie Baker, Natural Hazards Observer, Vol. 39 (6), July, 2015) "The book is comprised of 13 chapters ... contributed by individual authors and divided into two sections. ... It will serve to shape and focus future research and debate. ... This is a volume that will be of value to those interested in exploring the acceptable ethical bounds of conduct during times of disaster. Such individuals should include not only ethicists but also public health professionals, humanitarian aid workers, and academics who might conduct research in a disaster setting." (James D. Hearn, Bioethical Inquiry, Vol. 12, 2015)
