A Fresh Approach to Bioethics

This approach tackles pressing philosophical questions, such as:

• How do we handle situations where our obligations to others conflict with our own moral principles, safety, or ability to assist?

By exploring classic Jewish texts, Weiner uncovers new ideas that can enrich the world of medicine today. His expertise offers a unique insight into the complex issues surrounding healthcare, making this book an invaluable resource for:

• Students and scholars of bioethics and Jewish studies
• Anyone interested in exploring the intersection of faith and healthcare
