SUMMARY

This book offers an in-depth analysis of the wide range of issues surrounding "passive euthanasia" and "allow-to-die" decisions. The author develops a comprehensive conceptual model that is highly useful for assessing and dealing with real-life situations. He presents an informative historical overview, an evaluation of the clinical settings in which treatment abatement takes place, and an insightful discussion of relevant legal aspects. The result is a clearly articulated ethical analysis that is medically realistic, philosophically sound, and legally viable.Robert F. Weir is the author of 'Abating Treatment With Critically Ill Patients: Ethical and Legal Limits to the Medical Prolongation of Life', published 1989 under ISBN 9780195045284 and ISBN 0195045289.
