  • Title: Instituting a research ethic: chilling and cautionary tales.
    Author: Pettit P.
    Journal: Bioethics; 1992 Apr; 6(2):90-112. PubMed ID: 11652088.
    Abstract:
    The ethical review of research on human beings, and indeed the ethical review of broader ranges of human activity, is a growth industry. I want to look here at the ethical review of research on humans and raise some questions about the direction it is taking. I am pessimistic about where the institutions that we have set up are leading us and I want to sound a warning note and suggest some changes that are needed in the practice of ethical review.
