Description

Explore the evolving landscape of end-of-life care with The Philosophy of Palliative Care: Critique and Reconstruction from Oxford University Press. This text examines the shift from Cicely Saunders' original vision of a 'good death' to the modern applications defined by the WHO. While the palliative care approach is now applied to all patients in end-of-life situations beyond just cancer patients, this book provides a necessary pause to evaluate its effectiveness. Authors Randall and Downie use the Oxford Textbook of Palliative Medicine, 3rd edition, as a foundation to present a rigorous argument regarding the philosophy of patient care. This work is designed for those looking to critique and evaluate the current standards of palliative medicine and the philosophical frameworks that guide patient treatment in terminal stages.
