Taylor & Francis Ltd The Elderly Legal and Ethical Issues in
Book SynopsisAging is a public health priority that is becoming increasingly important in both developed and less developed nations, with individual health care providers and law-makers each facing difficult ethical and policy dilemmas. The complex issues physicians deal with include informed consent and patient decision-making capacity, use of advance care planning and decision-making by family and medical staff, and withdrawing and withholding life-sustaining interventions. Broader questions include: has aging been over medicalized? Is it ethical for older patients to receive less medical care than younger ones, through unspoken practice or formal rationing? Is there inevitable conflict between the generations over scarce medical resources? How should physician, patient and family confront end-of-life decisions? How have different nations responded to increasing numbers of the elderly? Have social values changed as to family responsibility and individual autonomy?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Renascent Pragmatism Studies in Law and Social
Book SynopsisPragmatism is experiencing a resurgence in law, philosophy and social science, with pragmatists seeking a consistent, comprehensive and productive understanding of social life. In its four sections Renascent Pragmatism aids the reinvigoration of pragmatism as an important intellectual tradition and contributor to inquiry and change in social life. The book is a first of its kind for combining essays on theory, method, public policy and empirical scholarship, presenting contributions from philosophers, legal scholars and social scientists. Throughout the book, the concrete linkage between policy, theory and method is emphasized, while recognizing the philosophical tradition in which the inquiries and prescriptions rest.Trade Review'This book is must reading for anyone interested in pragmatism, law or social science. The book shows how pragmatism continues to be a powerful theoretical tool for the analysis of law and society.' George Martinez, Southern Methodist University, USA 'This collection of fascinating essays demonstrates the vitality and extends the reach of pragmatism in the social sciences. As one of the contributors notes: "Pragmatism is where the action really is.' John Lachs, Vanderbilt University, USA 'This collection of essays makes a powerful and coherent case for a renascent pragmatism as a tool and organizing principle for socio-legal research - and for the talents of a new generation of scholars embracing this tool. The uninitiated reader will learn important insights into the contribution and history of pragmatism, while those more familiar with pragmatism will see its particular utility for cutting-edge socio-legal research - superbly exemplified in this volume.' Bryant Garth, American Bar Foundation, USA 'This marvelously organized and researched set of essays provides readers both new and more familiar with pragmatism as a philosophy and form of politics with insightful commentary and interpretations. This book should help mobilize that renaissance its title announces. A much needed and welcome addition of use to just about every field of social inquiry.'
