Speaking from and to the growing movement among academics to become involved with
'socially-engaged' work, this volume presents first-person case studies of attempts
to fix serious ethical problems in medical practice and research. It highlights the
critical difference between the pundit approach to bioethics and the interventional
approach - the talkers and the doers - and points to how abused and damaged the doers
often end up. Chapters cover a diverse set of topics, including the troubling influence
of for-profit businesses on public health policy, the politics of exposing histories
of unjust medical research, the challenges of patient rights' work in sexuality and
reproduction, collaborations between NGOs and academics, methods for changing entrenched
yet harmful medical practices, engaging public policy through educating governmental
leaders, and whistleblowing. The trending interest in the interplay of academia and
advocacy and the growing importance of 'socially-engaged' work by academics make this
a timely and much-needed resource
