This third edition has been updated to incorporate the statements issued since the second edition, including the papal encyclicals Splendor Veritatis & Evangelium Vitae.
This is a book that I purchased for a morality course. This spells out precisely what the Catholic Church teaches about medical issues for not only anyone who is employed in a Catholic health facility but for anyone who needs to know about issues. Most medical issues are noted with references to the various documents. It is challenging reading (not so much of ability) but of true reflection of decisions that may be made in various situations.
Every human life is sacred.
