Improvements

Few ideas:

Sources cited, need backstory of 19th century and maybe earlier? Halperin helpful for Israel, need Europe.

Expand key issues, summary style descriptions of key topics. Describe controversies internal to the field

See Also for related topics and Jewish law/ethics principles.

Recent trends in Jewish bioethics, expand

Maybe address here certain overarching issues common to medical ethics, such as Jewish view of patient autonomy, confidentiality, professional role ethics, beneficence, etc.

Of course, need help w/categ's, WProjs, tags, etc. Thanks. HG | Talk 23:24, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While I think the list of issues about which Jewish medical ethics are concerned is a good start, it would be nice to see actual sections discussing the individual topics.Sdsures (talk) 16:29, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Clean-up needed

Howdy, I just stumbled on this article. It is super important but seems woefully neglected and needs better structure. Dividing things into sections and the like would help a lot. If someone who knows more about this topic would like to clean things up that would be great, if not I'll give it a go. Joe407 (talk) 11:37, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
