This Conclusion identifies three lessons that follow from the chapters in the book. First, we ought to identify and critically reflect on the ideological assumptions that are embodied in new technologies. Second, we ought to design or redesign technologies with an awareness of their impact on people and how the effects vary depending on local circumstances. Third, we ought to draw on bioethics as we develop new medical technologies so that we can challenge common assumptions and appeal to deeply held moral values to inform our decisions.

摘要

This Conclusion identifies three lessons that follow from the chapters in the book. First, we ought to identify and critically reflect on the ideological assumptions that are embodied in new technologies. Second, we ought to design or redesign technologies with an awareness of their impact on people and how the effects vary depending on local circumstances. Third, we ought to draw on bioethics as we develop new medical technologies so that we can challenge common assumptions and appeal to deeply held moral values to inform our decisions.
