Table of ContentsReviewsAdvance Praise: `This is an outstanding study of one of the most significant issues facing our society today. George Agich's criticism of the commonly accepted view of autonomy, grounded in a sensitive and intelligent analysis of the practical realities that confront marginalized elders, succeeds as few others. More importantly, his contextual theory, based on the work of other phenomenologists in medical ethics, is a significant alternative, and harbors important implications for most other issues in the field.'
