"I [think] this book [is] a remarkable effort and I know it will be a useful reference for anybody who works in palliative care." -- Roger Woodruff, International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care Newsletter "It is rare to find an authoritative, exhaustively researched textbook that is also highly readable. Grounded in historical cases and clinical experience, the book conveys the principles and practice of bioethics with compelling, real-world practicality. Ethics in Palliative Care deserves to become a standard for bioethical studies and clinical training. It is a new classic." -- Ira Byock, Founder & Chief Medical Officer, The Institute for Human Caring. Author of Dying Well and The Best Care Possible "The fields of medical ethics and palliative care have evolved along separate paths, yet in their growth have developed substantial areas of confluence and overlap. In this important new text, Dr. Macauley explains how these two disciplines are woven together, and the important lessons that each can learn from the other. The analysis of some of the topics ' including requests for non-beneficial treatment'are among the best I've seen." -- Robert D. Truog, Professor and Director, Center for Bioethics, Harvard Medical School "A brilliant distillation of history, culture, and clinical practice, this volume provides clear and actionable guidance for all clinicians who are caring for the seriously ill. I couldn't put it down. Read this book." -- Diane E.

Synopsis
No specialty faces more diverse and challenging ethical dilemmas than palliative medicine. What is the best way to plan ahead for the end of life? How should physicians respond when patients refuse treatments likely to be beneficial, or demand treatments not likely to be? Who makes medical decisions for patients who are too ill to decide for themselves? Do patients have the "right to die" (and, if so, what exactly does that mean)? In this volume noted palliative care physician and bioethicist Robert C. Macauley addresses a broad range of issues from historical, legal, clinical, and ethical perspectives. Clinically nuanced and philosophically rigorous, Ethics in Palliative Care analyzes hot-button subjects like physician assisted dying and euthanasia, as well as often overlooked topics such as pediatric palliative care, organ donation, palliative care research, and moral distress. Drawing on real cases yet written in non-technical language, this complete guide will appeal to both medical professionals and lay readers., This is a comprehensive analysis of ethical topics in palliative care, combining clinical experience and philosophical rigor. A broad array of topics are explored from historical, legal, clinical, and ethical perspectives, offering both the seasoned clinician and interested lay reader a thorough examination of the complex ethical issues facing patients suffering from life-threatening illness.
