My academic thinking has been deeply shaped by the work of Susan Sherwin who was my supervisor and continues to offer guidance and support. I am grateful to Dr. Sherwin for reading an early draft of this book. Adam Auch, Alex Wellington, Anna Macdonald, Jo Kornegay, Jordan Wadden, Khadija Coxon, Laurenne Ava Kredentser, Madelaine Ley, Mara Marin, Mitchell Wideman, Robert Murray, Rosemary Wharton, Tim Mt.

I have also presented versions of these chapters at the International Feminist Approaches to Bioethics conference and the Canadian Society for Bioethics conference and received useful feedback from the audiences.
