Description

"In Conflicts of Conscience in Health Care, Holly Fernandez Lynch finds a way around the polarizing rhetoric associated with this issue by proposing a compromise that protects both a patient's access to care and a physician's ability to refuse. This focus on compromise is crucial as new uses of medical technology expand the controversy beyond abortion and contraception to reach an increasing number of doctors and patients."--BOOK JACKET.
