by Marilyn Webb (Author), Timothy E. Quill (Foreword by), Joanne Lynn (Introduction by)
Modern medical technology has lengthened our lives and forever altered how we face our deaths -- but it has also created painful dilemmas that lawyers, doctors, spiritual leaders, and, above all, patients and their families are struggling with every day. Now, drawing on more than six years of firsthand research and reporting, noted journalist Marilyn Webb has written the one essential book we need to understand these new realities -- and to take positive steps to improve the care of the dying.
Front Jacket
The Good Death is the first full-scale examination of one of today's most complex issues: the profound change in the way Americans think about and confront death. Drawing on more than six years of firsthand research and reporting, noted journalist Marilyn Webb builds her account around intimate portraits of the dying themselves. She explains why some deaths become shockingly difficult--and needlessly painful--and how the struggles over end-of-life decisions can pit patient and family against hospitals, doctors, insurance companies, religious groups, and the law.
But there is good news as well. Webb describes many extraordinary programs and individuals who are changing the face of dying. An abundant source of comfort and hope, The Good Death shows how the essential elements of humane--even uplifted--death are available to all of us, if we know what is possible, where to go for help, and how to prepare.
