He examines measuring tools for determining rational rationing of health resources, such as the "quality of adjusted life year." He also addresses questions concerning genetic technology, such as whether there are worthy goals in genetic enhancement beyond therapy and whether there is a standard of "genetic responsibility" that should be imposed upon research. The conditions under which human experimentation can be pursued in order to advance genetic research are explored next. Finally, issues connected to human organ transplantation are examined as a paradigmatic case study of the issue of distributive justice and new medical science.
