Reviews

William F. May is one of our most valuable and sensitive commentators on bioethics and the human condition. In this splendid book he ties together the burning issues of physician-assisted suicide and health care. These two issues have an enormous impact on each other, and May very nicely brings out the connections. A valuable and timely book. DANIEL CALLAHAN The Hastings Center In his wonderful new book May describes prudence, fidelity, and public-spiritedness as virtues for health care professionals - and he displays them as virtues for moral theologians . . . The continuing conversation about assisted suicide and access to health care will be better if this book gets a wide audience. - ALLEN VERHEY Hope College
