"In an age when multiculturalism and respect for the sources of ethical understanding is urged, Artificial Nutrition and Hydration and the Permanently Unconscious Patient provides readers a scholarly opportunity to experience the method of Catholic theology in facing ethical questions in medicine...[Recommended] for those on ethics committees, physicians, and other caregivers who can take time to read some of the challenging material and to all persons who desire insight into how religious traditions consider critical issues in medical care."―JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association)
"This book will be valuable to anyone working in medicine or medical ethics. And since it is my practice to respect my patients' religious beliefs, I think the book is absolutely necessary."―Journal of Palliative Medicine
"Hamel and Walter have done a significant service by providing the reader with the medical, legal, theological, and magisterial materials necessary to formulate a position on the significance of the prudential teaching offered in John Paul II's 2004 allocution and the CDF response to the American bishops on the obligation to use artificial nutrition and hydration to prolong life."―Theological Studies
"This is an essential book for any library that aspires to maintain a decent bioethics section. It contains a substantial collection of essay and official teaching documents that seek to present and develop Roman Catholic teaching on the care of patients who are permanently unconscious ... In one book ... the student is given a comprehensive and up-to-date series of reflections on one of the most controversial bioethical issues."―Theological Book Review
