Who Says You're Dead?: Medical & Ethical Dilemmas for the Curious & Concerned



Shirley J.                      Adult Non-Fiction                               Ethics and Medical Law

Who Says You're Dead?: Medical & Ethical Dilemmas for the Curious & Concerned by Jacob M. Appel  352 pages

Excellent book dealing with almost every medical situation one can think of and how each case is looked legally and ethically.   Fascinating.   Readers might think they know the obvious answers to many of these medical/ethical dilemmas but will be surprised.   Nothing is cut and dried nor black and white.   There are so many issues with everything that need to be addressed that laymen might not consider off the top of their heads, but, that doctors, hospitals, lawyers and judges see from a completely different perspective.   Well worth the read to give one background information on so many things that can and do happen in life and death and what one needs to know in advance.   Excellent!  All will come away enlightened.  Too heavy for the young, but anyone interested in a career in law would do themselves a favor to read this.  Adults will be surprised by all you learn here.
