This work positions ethical issues commonly encountered in clinical situations within Jewish law. The concept of duty is significant in exploring bioethical issues, and this presents a non-parochial Jewish approach to bioethics, while it includes critiques of both current secular and Jewish literatures. The book explores: the role of the family in medical decision-making; the question of informed consent as a personal religious duty; and the responsibilities of caretakers.
