Nachum welcomed Rabbi Jason Weiner to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore his fascinating new book, released by Urim Publications, entitled “Jewish Guide to Practical Medical Decision-Making.” From the book’s website: “Due to rapid advances in the medical field, existing books on Jewish medical ethics are quickly becoming outdated. Jewish Guide to Practical Medical Decision-Making seeks to remedy that by presenting the most contemporary medical information and rabbinic rulings in an accessible, user-friendly manner. Rabbi Weiner addresses a broad range of medical circumstances such as surrogacy and egg donation, assisted suicide, and end-of-life decision making. Based on his extensive training and practical familiarity inside a major hospital, Rabbi Weiner provides clear and concise guidance to facilitate complex decision-making for the most common medical dilemmas that arise in contemporary society.”
