Limited pharmaceuticalisation
Over the last quarter century, non-medical prescribing in the UK has grown significantly; eight non-medical professional groups now have authority to prescribe a wide range of medicines, suggesting it could be a potent driver of pharmaceuticalisation. In this article, we present data from a case study of physiotherapists' prescribing practices. UK physiotherapists have had legal rights to prescribe medicines since 2005, but relatively little is k…

A Reference in Research Ethics
Education in the ethics of research with human participants has now moved well beyond secluded seminars in graduate schools. For example, the National Institutes of Health now requires research ethics education for principal investigators and key personnel who receive extramural funding.

Letting the Deaf Be Deaf Reconsidering the Use of Cochlear Implants in Prelingually Deaf Children
In theory, cochlear implants hold out the possibility of enabling profoundly prelingually deaf children to hear. For these children's parents, who are usually hearing, this possibility is a great relief. Yet the decision to have this prosthetic device implanted ought not to be viewed as an easy or obvious one. Implant efficacy is modest and the burdens associated with them can be great. Moreover, the decision to forgo cochlear implantation for on…
