There is a great series of books I discovered at my local library called "Opposing Viewpoints" (Published by Greenhaven Press, Inc. in San Diego,CA) Topics covered include AIDS, Biomedical Ethics, Death and Dying, Epidemics, Euthanasia, Genetic Engineering,Health Care etc. They have essays defending various perspectives of each issue. Very informative and could be quite helpful to prep for interviews that include ethics questions!

I'm currently reading the one on Health Care and it has info on managed care in the US, Canada's health care system, and government initiatives.

Thanks for the info, cocoNUT!

I just want to add a website to this, it's bioethics.net .
It's the site for the American Journal of Bioethics, and you can sign up for a weekly newsletter that gives you updates on the current headlines of bioethics in medicine and science.
