Abstract

In 1964, Van Rensselaer Potter stressed the importance of linking Law, Science and communities to translate human knowledge into responsible action in terms of quality of life and the environment. This response recalls the teachings of this scientist and pioneer of bioethics, whose thinking remains marginalized to this day, in favour of a legal, philosophical and even theological vision focused on the value of human health.
