Thesis (M.A.)--The University of Texas Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at Galveston, 2001.

Modern medical ethics in the twenty-first century is largely a secular enterprise. Though scholars of medical ethics (or bioethics) and physicians today are certainly free to aver their own perspectives, no overtly religious concepts are accepted by these professionals as a basis for describing morality in the practice of medicine as a whole. The earliest texts on medical ethics in English, however, had a greater reliance upon religious beliefs in framing medical morality for the profession. The three first texts in the Anglo-American heritage (written by John Gregory, 1725–1773, Thomas Percival, 1740–1803, and Benjamin Rush, 1746–1813) are analyzed here to discern and describe the roles that religion played in medical morality in the period 1770–1820.
