In this last episode of the first series of Body Politics, we reflect back on the history that we have come by over the past few months. One of the regular themes thrown up by the series' episodes is what we mean by 'progress' in science and medicine, and how a critical history of science and medicine can have deep, philosophical significance for our present and future senses of how society should be organised. In conversation with Dr Jacob Moses of Johns Hopkins University, we reflect on what progress means for medical practitioners and patients alike, and how it should be defined as part of our changing ethical sensibilities, and what they represent about broader changes in ethical and moral values, in distinction to better know definitions of progress accompanying technological innovation.
