Summary, etc. Palliative care is a rapidly growing area within health care and one in which there are many ethical dilemmas. Chronically and terminally ill patients increasingly wish to take control of their own lives and deaths, resources and scarce technology has created controversial life-prolonging treatment. This book has been written by a clinician and a teacher and writer of health care ethics to provide all those who care for the terminally ill - doctors, nurses, social workers, physiotherapists, clergy and other carers - wiyth the concepts and principles to assist then in difficult decisions. A central theme, that technical expertise must be controlled by humane, non-technical judgements, runs through the text/ The book includes genuine case histories to illustrate ethical issues in the real world.
