Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

?An original, compelling, and provocative exploration of ethical issues in our society, with thoughtful and balanced commentary. I have not seen anything like it.? ?Alan Lightman, author of Einstein?s Dreams Drawing upon the author?s two decades teaching medical ethics, as well as his work as a practicing psychiatrist, this profound and addictive little book offers up challenging ethical dilemmas and asks readers, What would you do? ·A daughter gets tested to see if she?s a match to donate a kidney to her father. The test reveals that she is not the man?s biological daughter. Should the doctor tell the father? Or the daughter? ·A deaf couple prefers a deaf baby. Should they be allowed to use medical technology to ensure they have a child who can?t hear? ·Who should get custody of an embryo created through IVF when a couple divorces? ·Or, when you or a loved one is on life support, Who says you?re dead?In short, engaging scenarios, Dr. Appel takes on hot-button issues that many of us will confront: genetic screening, sexuality, privacy, doctor-patient confidentiality. He unpacks each hypothetical with a brief reflection drawing from science, philosophy, and history, explaining how others have approached these controversies in real-world cases. Who Says You?re Dead? is designed to defy easy answers and to stimulate thought and even debate among professionals and armchair ethicists alike.…
