Heroes in bioethics.
Throughout his remarkable and too-brief career, Benjamin Freedman was concerned with the ethical standards of ethicists themselves. He worried that ethicists had been bought out, as he knew of none whose opposition to an employer had ever led to being fired. If we look today for what he sought--a bioethical hero--Benjy is himself still the preeminent example.
