The advances in oncological therapy as well as the knowledge of the limitations to what is possible pose major ethical challenges for doctors, nurses and patients: The possibilities for treatment in oncology are expanding continuously. As a result patients are involved with increasingly complex treatment decisions, including end of life decisions. Furthermore, at a societal level the question of a just allocation of resources arises. This volume addresses controversial issues in medical ethics which are crucial for oncology.
