Anotacija:

     If any discipline poses questions of life and death it is medical ethics. Where the availability of treatment is limited, who should get priority? Should doctors force treatment on unwilling patients? How can we judge whether a life is worth living, and who should decide?
     Reasonable care helps us approach these questions by offering a survey and critique of contemporary medical ethics, but it does so by drawing heavily on actual practice and the problems faced by doctors, nurses and their patients.
