The Anticipatory Corpse: Medicine, Power, and the Care of the Dying - Notre Dame Studies in Medical Ethics and Bioethics
Jeffrey P. Bishop
In this original and compelling book, Jeffrey P. Bishop, a philosopher, ethicist, and physician, argues that something has gone sadly amiss in the care of the dying by contemporary medicine and in our social and political views of death, as shaped by our scientific successes and ongoing debates about euthanasia and “the right to die” – or to live.
