Palliative and Supportive Care, 2004
The effects of a disease alter every aspect of the person's being. Even with a fairly mild illness, treatment of the disease will change the patient's work and social habits, family relationships, and outlook. When the illness is cancer, and when, as in this particular case, death was almost certain in a short and measured time, the effect on the ...

I describe both criteria of general personhood, which distinguish between persons and non-persons, and ...

Concepts of personhood are embedded in a political and cultural context. The persistence of moral conflicts--and advances in biological and clinical sciences accelerate their number--and the difficulties of resolving them reflect features of our political culture. In the extraordinary American tension between individual and public life, controlling the

Personhood plays a fundamental, but obscure role in contemporary mental health care. The notion is of vital importance to phenomenological psychopathology because it articulates the interplay of autonomy and heteronomy, self and otherness, at work in mental suffering.
