Description
Drawing upon the author's two decades teaching medical ethics, as well as his work as a
practicing psychiatrist, this profound and addictive little book offers up challenging ethical
dilemmas and asks listeners, What would you do? A daughter gets tested to see if she's a match
to donate a kidney to her father. The test reveals that she is not the man's biological daughter.
Should the doctor tell the father? Or the daughter? A deaf couple prefers a deaf baby. Should they
be allowed to use medical technology to ensure they have a child who can't hear? Who should get
custody of an embryo created through IVF when a couple divorces? Or, when you or a loved one
is on life support, Who says you're dead? In short, engaging scenarios, Dr. Appel takes on hotbutton
issues that many of us will confront: genetic screening, sexuality, privacy, doctor-patient
confidentiality. He unpacks each hypothetical with a brief reflection drawing from science,
philosophy, and history, explaining how others have approached these controversies in real-world
cases. Who Says You're Dead? is designed to defy easy answers and to stimulate thought and
even debate among professionals and armchair ethicists alike.
