Philosophy on steroids: why the anti-doping position could use a little enhancement.

Brent M Kious1.   

Abstract

There is currently much concern over the use of pharmaceuticals and other biomedical techniques to enhance athletic performance--a practice we might refer to as doping. Many justifications of anti-doping efforts claim that doping involves a serious moral transgression. In this article, I review a number of arguments in support of that claim, but show that they are not conclusive, suggesting that we do not have good reasons for thinking that doping is wrong.
