Making Medical Decisions

The central theme of the book will concern the involvement of patients in decision making about their diagnosis and therapy. It will also address the contemporary relevance of the concept of autonomy as the trumping value in decision making and will critique this against the backdrop of those who are unable to participate in decision making and with the challenges posed by the "genetic revolution" and the increased emphasis on screening as preventative medicine playing a substantial role.McLean, Sheila A.
