Moral Medicine,
By
This review is from: On Moral Medicine: Theological Perspectives in Medical Ethics (Paperback)
Book was in great condition, has a wide variety of articles regarding particular issues in health care and different theological approaches to evaluating them. Fairly academic- not a light read.
