Can a complex bioethicalquestion be definitively answered through legislation? In July 1987the New York State legislature experimented with legislating medicalethics by amending the state‘s public health law to regulate `Do NotResuscitate‘ orders. The consequent law was complex and remainscontroversial. This volume reviews both the background bioethicaldebates and the elements of the public policy making process that areessential to understanding New York‘s experience with the DNR law. Itfeatures debates between leading exponents and critics of the law;case studies that examine the impact of New York‘s DNR law onclinicians, hospitals and patients; and a review of all empiricalstudies of the law by their lead authors. Appended to the volume isthe New York State DNR law and a comprehensive set of backgrounddocuments. .The co-editors, .Robert Baker. and .Martin A. Strosberg., areboth professors at Union College, Schenectady, New York. They havecollaborated on many projects including, .Rationing America‘sMedical. .Care: The Oregon Plan and Beyond.
