Ethics in Palliative Care

"This book brings together the knowledge and experience of a diverse team of professionals and raises questions surrounding the ethics of caring for people with progressive, life-limiting illness and their relatives." "Initial definitions and some theoretical discussion leads on to a practical text which will enable people from a variety of professions to discuss and debate issues further to their practice."
