I have not seen anything like it." —Alan Lightman, author of <i>Einstein's Dreams</i></b><br /> Drawing upon the author's two decades teaching medical ethics, as well as his work as a practicing psychiatrist, this profound and addictive little book offers up challenging ethical dilemmas and asks readers, <i>What would</i> you <i>do?</i> <ul> <li>A daughter gets tested to see if she's a match to donate a kidney to her father. The test reveals that she is not the man's biological daughter. Should the doctor tell the father? Or the daughter?</li> <li>A deaf couple prefers a deaf baby. Should they be allowed to use medical technology to ensure they have a child who can't hear?</li> <li>Who should get custody of an embryo created through IVF when a couple divorces?</li> <li>Or, when you or a loved one is on life support, <i>Who says you're dead?</i></li> <li style="list-style: none">In short, engaging scenarios, Dr. Appel takes on hot-button issues that many of us will confront: genetic screening, sexuality, privacy, doctor-patient confidentiality. He unpacks each hypothetical with a brief reflection drawing from science, philosophy, and history, explaining how others have approached these controversies in real-world cases. <i>Who Says You're Dead?</i> is designed to defy easy answers and to stimulate thought and even debate among professionals and armchair ethicists alike.</li> </ul>.
