Review
This volume takes a unique approach to ethics at end-of-life by examining core ethical dilemmas through an analytical case study approach. Each chapter presents a real-world case that illustrates the dilemma, provides the author s perspective on what was happening in the event, and explains how the case is resolved. Along the way, readers are challenged to think,What would I do? or If this happened in my institution, how would our staff respond? The book will be useful to those who help pre-medical and medical students think about the real-world dilemmas they will face as physicians. --William G. Hoy, Theoretical Medicine & Bioethics, Springer
