At the 2005 annual meeting of the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities, the lifetime achievement award was presented to Eric Cassell, M.D., of the Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York City.1 Dr. Cassell was one of the founders of the field of bioethics, playing an instrumental role in the development of The Hastings Center from its founding and in producing an extraordinary body of scholarship in clinical ethics (Cassell, 1985a, 1985b, 1991). In his acceptance address, Dr. Cassell reminded his audience of the focus of bioethics and clinical ethics three decades ago on the fundamentals of the field. Dr. Cassell lamented the lack of intense focus on the fundamentals of the field and called on his audience to return to the older, richer, more challenging intellectual work of getting the fundamentals right. Although they were written before this address was given, the articles in this 2006 “Clinical Ethics” issue of the Journal of Medicine and Philosophy take up Dr. Cassell’s challenge in interesting and important ways.
