Which babies shall live? : humanistic dimensions of the care of imperiled newborns / edited by Thomas H. Murray and Arthur L. Caplan
Livre
Edited by Humana Press - 1985
This book discusses such poignant themes as the suffering so often associated with neonatal care, including not only that of the infants themselves, but also that of their parents and caretakers. Authors assess the moral significance of this suffering, scrutinize the conflict between science and society over the 'what is best for the infant' principle, and examine the legal concept of privacy as an important element in the refusal of care for seriously ill newborns. -- Source jacquette
