The textbook emphasizes the Catholic tradition in health care ethics without separating it from the broader Christian tradition. The third edition incorporates issues that have arisen since the 1994 second, and is somewhat differently arranged. Appended are the 2001 Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Facilities and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of the United Nations. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
