'The book is a rich exploration of a complex set of questions, and it provides an important, fertile context for the asking ethical questions in the globalization of medical research.' - K. W. Wildes, Human Rights Review, vol. 9 no. 1 (2008)
'...this is a worthy and stimulating read which draws profitably from the author’s legal and philosophical experience, and it represents a useful tool for anyone who is interested in human subject research, bioethics and emerging biolaw.' - Shawn H.E. Harmon, Script-ed, vol. 4 no. 2 (2007)
'...there are two reasons why the book should have appeal to anyone interested in this area of law and ethics. First, it provides an articulate and interesting discussion of the main legal and ethical developments in this area and so will be a valuable resource. Secondly, regardless of whether you agree with Plomer's approach or all of her arguments, the book should stimulate thought and debate.' - Alasdair Maclean, Medical Law Review, Vol. 14 no. 2 (2006)
