On the heels of our 2nd International Bioethics Conference, we have published “Horizontes de la bioética” (Horizons in Bioethics) edited by Núria Terribas and Ester Busquets and published by Herder. Against the current backdrop marked by scientific and technological development, a solid foundation in bioethics is crucial, serving as a guiding light toward a future where the sciences and humanities converge. The publication features the contributions of various authors who reflect on the impact of biotechnologies, the challenges in bioethics education, the application of ethics during the pandemic, and the taboos surrounding death in contexts such as transhumanism and euthanasia.

Another title, this time in collaboration with the Minerva Collective, called “Qué políticas para qué cuidados. Ética del cuidado, justicia, retos y controversias en la acción” (Which politics for what type of care: the ethics of care, justice, challenges and controversial action) is also set to be released soon. This book provides resources from the latest seminar featuring Joan Tronto. At this event, attendees explored the question “What is good care?” in hopes of improving future care policies. The seminar examined the circumstances that hinder the provision of proper care, offering an ethically sensitive perspective that will help us understand care needs and ensure better policies for a more just society where people receive better care

In order to broaden the scope of our monograph, “Donación de plasma y altruismo: revisando conceptos”, published for the seminar on the ethics of plasma donation, it has been translated into English under the title “Plasma donation and altruism: reviewing concepts”. Amidst the ongoing review at the European level of regulations introducing “compensation” for donors, this issue examines the topic from the perspective of administrators, patients, donors, blood bank managers, and industry representatives.

All of these titles will soon be available in our collection of books.  Meanwhile, click here to consult our previously published titles.
