Fall for the Book 2019

In Who Says You’re Dead?: Medical & Ethical Dilemmas for the Curious & Concerned, Jacob M. Appel, MD explores a variety of hypothetical (and also real-world) complex issues surrounding genetic screening, sexuality, privacy, and doctor-patient confidentiality that both mental health experts and the average curious ethicist will find fascinating, stimulating, and  sometimes even baffling! Jon LaPook for CBS News says, “[This book] is, “important and provocative. Physician, lawyer, and bioethicist: what a perfect trifecta for the author of a book on ethical issues in medicine. I read it from start to finish in one sitting.”
