Although outdated on the final chapter I believe the exploration of the three main topics, and the introduction to ethical principles are well put together.

The views expressed are clearly laid out and the topics explained and explored are to a required depth.

It is amazing how some books are getting out-of-date so quickly as we continue to make technological and medical advances.
