In our world today, issues in biomedical ethics are beginning to create enormous concern not only among ethicists but also on the global environment. This is so because of the momentous consequences arising from advancement in biomedical research, as it concerns the safeguarding of life. Biomedical scholars and researchers have assumed a new dimension to issues on the sanctity of human life. This has gone to the extent whereby it is now permissible and medically acceptable to carry out abortion, and permit euthanasia from one insubstantial excuse to the other. The title of this research, Selected Issues in Biomedical Ethics: An African Perspective, sets out to consider the application of African moral and ethical principles governing human conduct to curtail the deluge of abuse of human life by medical researchers and scientists. The research argues for the sanctity of human life and the dignity of the human person which is always paramount in African worldview.
