Feeding the Dying

Religion and end-of-life decisions.

Today individuals and families face complex and challenging health-care decisions brought about by increasingly sophisticated technologies. The author argues that religious beliefs and principles must inform the decision-making process. She examines two cases involving removal of artificial nutrition and hydration in light of Catholic teaching on life, suffering, and death. X,214 Seiten, gebunden (American University Studies.
