Behind the tough decisions

Meenal B Mamdani
Abstract:
Lisa Belkin, a reporter for the New York Times, spent three years observing the ethics committee in a large private hospital in the US. The hospital cares for adults and children but her focus in this book is on the world of the ill children, the difficult choices their parents and the medical staff face in taking care of these children and how the ethics committee interacts with both to help them arrive at decisions.
