Already live and available on bioethics.net is the October issue of The American Journal of Bioethics.

Featured this month on the cover is the topic of nanomedicine including an editorial by Dr. Summer Johnson on whether the era of nanomedicine is upon us, still galloping toward us, or likely simply never to arrive.

This editorial is in response in large part to a Target Article by Fritz Allhoff reviewing the broad spectrum of ethical issues in nanomedicine’s “coming era”.

Also in this month’s issue of AJOB is an Target Article by Rentmeester and George discussing the morally complex clinical ethics cases when a psychiatric consult is requested by physicians.

Lastly, Gesundheit et al raise the question of “who is a terrorist?” and even when the definition is clear, they ask the question of scope and nature of the responsibilities of physicians to treat such persons, even against their own personal moral convictions.
