Conclusion

With these last considerations we went back to the question of the identity of bioethics, mentioned at the beginning this text. I have presented only some of the many bioethical issues addressed by Evandro Agazzi, although I think they are the most significant. Also, I have clearly presented my critical remarks about some of his positions.

But, as I said, Agazzi has given and continues to offer an important contribu­tion to this field called bioethics. Still more, he is giving an important contribution to the cause of the pursuit of scientific and ethical truth, fostering the respect for human dignity.
