Publisher Description

The way patients make health care decisions is much more complicated than is often recognized. Patient autonomy allows both that patients will sometimes defer to clinicians and that they should sometimes be active inquirers, ready to question their clinicians and do some independent research. At the same time, patients' active inquiry requires clinicians' support. **********

Rethinking the Ethics of Vital Organ Donations: Accepted Medical Practice Already Violates the Dead Donor Rule.
