Description

If That Ever Happens to Me: Making Life and Death Decisions after Terri Schiavo. By Lois Shepherd. The University of North Carolina Press, 2009. 192 pages. Hardcover. $28.00 Lois Shepherd's book If That Ever Happens to Me: Making Life and Death Decisions after Terri Schiavo demonstrates a great appreciation for the unresolved conflicts over end-of-life care revealed by the Schiavo case. Through detailed analysis, this book debunks the claim that the controversy defied an established consensus concerning the appropriateness of withdrawing medically administered nutrition and hydration. Arguments that settled legal standards provided a stalwart framework for that consensus failed to appreciate the variations and limitations of those norms. Shepherd challenges the notion that we professionals--doctors, lawyers, judges, and bioethicists--had authoritatively resolved the moral and social significance of withdrawal of nutrition and hydration.
