Due to rapid advances in the medical field, existing books on Jewish medical ethics are quickly becoming
outdated. Jewish Guide to Practical Medical Decision-Making seeks
to remedy that by presenting the most contemporary medical
information and rabbinic rulings in an accessible, user-friendly
manner. Rabbi Weiner addresses a broad range of medical
circumstances such as surrogacy and egg donation, assisted
suicide, and end-of-life decision making. Based on his extensive
training and practical familiarity inside a major hospital, Rabbi
Weiner provides clear and concise guidance to facilitate complex
decision-making for the most common medical dilemmas that
arise in contemporary society.
