Recenzii

'The cases that are presented in this marvellous and disturbing casebook include a wide variety of clinical situations that are eerily familiar. … The editors and authors of this book give a nice snapshot of an evolving professional discipline. They illustrate all the ways in which ethics consultation is imperfect, tentative and open to ongoing questioning and discussion. … The cases are presented concisely and give enough information for readers to make judgements about what ought to have been done. The editors even include a useful guide in which cases are organised by theme and suggestions for further study are offered. These features, along with the quality of the case presentations and the personal nature of the reflections, make the book a useful tool for training members of hospital ethics committees. It will also be helpful to others who are interested in understanding the evolving practice of ethics consultation.' New England Journal of Medicine
