Conclusion. . 330 $aThis book examines the ethics of end of life care, focusing on the kinds of decisions that are commonly made in clinical practice. Specific attention is paid to the intensification of treatment for terminal symptoms, particularly pain relief, and the withdrawal and withholding of care, particularly life-saving or life-prolonging medical care. The book is structured into three sections. The first section contains essays examining end of life care from the perspective of moral theory and theology. The second sets out various conceptual terms and distinctions relevant to decision-making at the end of life. The third section contains chapters that focus on substantive ethical issues. This format not only provides for a comprehensive analysis of the ethical issues that arise in the context of end of life care but allows readers to effectively trace the philosophical, theological and conceptual underpinnings that inform their specific interests. This work will be of interest to scholars working in the area as well as clinicians, specialists and healthcare professionals who encounter these issues in the course of their practice. . 410 0$aPhilosophy and Medicine,$x2215-0080 ;$v136 606 $aBioethics 606 $aPalliative treatment 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aMedical laws and legislation 606 $aBioethics 606 $aPalliative Care 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aMedical Law 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aPalliative treatment. 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aMedical laws and legislation. 615 14$aBioethics. 615 24$aPalliative Care. 615 24$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aMedical Law. 676 $a174.24 676 $a174.24 702 $aEmmerich$b Nathan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMallia$b Pierre$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGordijn$b Bert$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPistoia$b Francesca$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910409997203321 996 $aContemporary European Perspectives on the Ethics of End of Life Care$92210318 997 $aUNINA
