"Doctors on the Edge exposes some of the hardest decisions to be made in a profession in which bodies are vulnerable and souls are laid bare. This is the account of doctors who are faced with wrenching moral dilemmas, thrust upon them uninvited and unexpected. Sometimes complementary and sometimes conflicting - law, medicine, and morality intrude on the daily practice of medicine. In stories that often include life-and-death choices, doctors maneuver through frightening ambiguities, subjectivity, and the essential principles of medical ethics to come to difficult conclusions."--BOOK JACKET.
