Deciding for Others: The Ethics of Surrogate Decision Making - Studies in Philosophy and Health Policy
Buchanan, Allen E. (University of Arizona)
This book is the most comprehensive treatment available of one of the most urgent - and yet in some respects most neglected - problems in bioethics: decision-making for incompetents. The authors' approach combines a probing analysis of fundamental issues in ethical theory with a sensitive awareness of the concrete realities of health care institutions.
