They then present case studies exploring the ways in which the ethical principles of different cultures are reflected in their health care policies in chapters discussing China, India, and Malaysia, as well as papers discussing ethics and the pharmaceutical industry, the ethics of physician involvement in interrogations at the American detention camp at Guantanamo, Italian policy and the ethics of electroconvulsive therapy, and patient perceptions of risk and implications for policy in the UK.
