A short book of under a hundred pages published by Harper & Row in 1976, offering, as its subtitle says, moral guidelines for Christian families and pastors on whether to end the medical treatment of the dying. Library subject headings are medical ethics, death and terminal care. Library records give no fuller description, so this note is kept short.
