International Library of Ethics, Law, and the New Medicine 68 Michel Dion David Weisstub Jean-Loup Richet Editors Financial Crimes: Psychological, Technological, and Ethical Issues International Library of Ethics, Law, and the New Medicine Volume 68 Series editors David N. Weisstub, University of Montreal Fac. Medicine Montreal, QC, Canada Dennis R. Cooley, North Dakota State University, History, Philosophy, and Religious Studies, Fargo, ND, USA The book series International Library of Ethics, Law and the New Medicine comprises volumes with an international and interdisciplinary focus. The aim of the Series is to publish books on foundational issues in (bio) ethics, law, international health care and medicine. The 28 volumes that have already appeared in this series address aspects of aging, mental health, AIDS, preventive medicine, bioethics and many other current topics. This Series was conceived against the background of increasing globalization and interdependency of the world’s cultures and govern- ments, with mutual influencing occurring throughout the world in all fields, most surely in health care and its delivery. By means of this Series we aim to contribute and cooperate to meet the challenge of our time: how to aim human technology to good human ends, how to deal with changed values in the areas of religion, society, culture and the self-definition of human persons, and how to formulate a new way of thinking, a new ethic. We welcome book proposals representing the broad interest of the interdisciplinary and international focus of the series. We especially welcome proposals that address aspects of ‘new medicine’, meaning advances in research and clinical health care, with an emphasis on those interventions and alterations that force us to re-examine foundational issues.
