To reveal the concrete threats to personal autonomy in long-term care, George Agich's book offers a framework for developing an ethic of long-term care within the complex environment in which many dependent and aged people find themselves. Previously published as Autonomy and Long-term Care (Oxford, 1993), this revised edition in paperback has wide appeal among bioethicists and health care professionals.
