- "Changes in health care in the 60 years since World War II have been dramatic, to say the least, and in no area have these changes been more dramatic than in human organ transplantation. Along with the advent of successful treatment for previously fatal illnesses such as chronic kidney disease came the realization that the ethical issues of health care required much more open discussion and public involvement. John Dossetor's medical career has spanned these changes in health care and medical ethics and he has been directly involved in these issues in a very personal way. .... At the heart of this book lies the evolution of medical ethics over the past 50 years. This evolution of this field of medicine is as dramatic as the changes that have occurred in the treatment of disease. One of the advantages of a long career in medicine is the opportunity it presents to look back through the lens of the present day, and John Dossetor takes full advantage of this opportunity. Throughout this book, he inserts personal examples of ethical dilemmas and discusses how, from the perspective of current medical ethics (or bioethics) we would view the events that he describes. These anecdotal experiences taken from his long career in medicine bring to life for the reader the dramatic changes that have occurred in our approach to ethical issues". -- Foreword, p. ix, x.

- Includes bibliographical references and index.
- This book "is not a defence of church teachings; rather, it is a description and constructively critical evaluation of the strategies with which Christians denominations are trying to influence public policies dealing with bioethical issues. After analysing how Christian churches and their theologians have formulated recommendations for public policy on bioethical issues, Williams assesses the strategies used to get their recommendations accepted. Based on this sober -- and sobering -- analysis, Williams offers a number of compelling suggestions for future action". -- back cover.

- "Viking. Published by the Penguin Group. First published 2000". -- verso of t.-p.
- The author looks at what she calls "ethical healthcare canaries", issues which "send us early-warning signals about the ethical climate in our society" (p. x) and asks "Is it inherently wrong ?" "I propose ... that we can view as inherently wrong that which breaches either of two values. These values are that we must have profound respect for life, in particular human life, and we must act to protect the human spirit -- the intangible, invisible, immeasurable reality that we need to find meaning in life and to make life worth living -- that deeply intuitive sense of relatedness or connectedness to the world and the universe in which we live. That which fails to show respect for life, in particular human life, or puts at serious risk or harms the human spirit is inherently wrong. Throughout this book I explore how some uses of our new science and technology or approaches to health care or medical treatment might breach one or other or both of these values". -- Prologue, pp. xi-xii.

Only the criteria which must guide bio-medical experiments on human beings were discussed. (p. 9)". "The consultation did not aim at producing a statement. The study groups reported some of their convictions, and questions, and the group which worked on an amended version of the Helsinki Declaration on experiments with human subjects presented their unanimously accepted report (cf. the full text on pages 22-25). ....

- "This focus of this book is on the pressing, underlying end-of-life issues that the Church faces today. It therefore provides an updated theological, ethical, pastoral, liturgical, and policy discussion for the Church as a whole, for individuals in their own lives and consciences, for professionals such as clergy and healthcare providers, and for those who make public policy. This book is meant to be used hand-in-hand with another book that addresses end-of-life issues from the perspective of individuals making healthcare decisions and family and friends who care for them. `Toward a Good Christian Death: Crucial Treatment Choices' was developed by the Committee on Medical Ethics of the Diocese of Washington. The two books together are designed for use by bodies of the Church, diocesan and parish groups, clerical and seminary classes, individual Episcopalians, public policy makers, and those of other religious traditions or of no religious tradition who have an interest in discussions of end-of-life matters within the Christian community." -- Intro., p. 5.
- This book "brings together the wisdom of [the End of Life Task Force] created by the 72nd General Convention of the Episcopal Church to study what faithful living and faithful dying mean today." -- back cover.
