Synopsis:
Moral Realities is the first comprehensive treatment of teachings and practices on medical care and ethics espoused by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon). It uses first-person experiences to portray LDS perspectives on bioethical topics such as abortion, genetic testing and enhancements, in vitro fertilization, medical assisted death, medicinal marijuana, neonatal intensive care, organ donation, preventive health care, universal access to care, and vaccinations. The book provides an appendix of historically significant LDS ecclesiastical teachings and policies on medical, health, and moral issues, making it a definitive educational and reference compilation.
