  On Assisted Suicide

  Assisted suicide and euthanasia are being legalized or at least debated throughout much of the world today. But should suicide ever be assisted? When someone is suffering and no longer wants to live, and asks another to help him end his life, what is the right response? In this powerful volume in Word on Fire’s Dignity Series, Stephanie Gray Connors engages both the mind and the heart in answering these increasingly urgent questions. Through ten proposed principles to help guide the conversation, On Assisted Suicide will draw readers into the mysteries of joy and suffering, life and death, and the unconditional dignity of the human person.   Why dignity? Because human dignity (dignitas, the worthiness of each person) is the foundation of all human society. Jacques Maritain, the Catholic philosopher who helped draft the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, affirmed this in saying, “The privilege connected with the dignity of the person is inalienable, and human life involves a sacred right.”  In a time of political polarization, social division, and the ongoing “culture wars,” the Dignity Series aims to refocus our attention on human dignity. The series enters into the great mystery of human life with wonder and reverence, and unflinchingly faces grave threats to human dignity, many of them ignored in the culture today.  Each volume in the series will examine one of those threats, drawing on rational argument, spiritual sources, and above all, personal stories that take readers into the lived experience on the frontier of the issue. This broad mix of ideas and approaches acknowledges that a wide variety of backgrounds and personalities shape how we interact with these questions—and that if a book is to help us grow, it has to stir our hearts as well as activate our minds. The Dignity Series emerges out of and points back to the whole-life ethic of Catholic social teaching, which is grounded in the principle of human dignity. “Social justice,” the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches, “can be obtained only in respecting the transcendent dignity of man” (CCC 1929). And that dignity, on the Catholic reading, can only finally rest on our status as creatures made in the image and likeness of God (Gen. 1:26). However, these books are for anyone—Catholic or non-Catholic, religious or nonreligious—who wrestles with these issues and longs to see a more informed and considerate approach to them.

  Nephrology - Kidney Diseases and...

  Nephrology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of kidney-related diseases. The kidneys, two vital organs located in the lower back, play an essential role in maintaining the body's overall health by filtering waste, regulating fluid levels, balancing electrolytes, and controlling blood pressure. In addition to their role in excretion, the kidneys are crucial in regulating the body's internal environment, making nephrology an integral field in medicine. Nephrology encompasses a wide range of diseases and conditions, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), acute kidney injury (AKI), kidney stones, glomerular diseases, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The growing incidence of kidney-related disorders, particularly CKD, has made nephrology a crucial part of healthcare systems worldwide. 
  The importance of nephrology in healthcare cannot be overstated, as kidney diseases often develop silently, showing few symptoms until significant damage has occurred. Early detection is vital in preventing the progression of kidney disease and reducing complications, including kidney failure. With millions of individuals affected by CKD and a steadily rising number of patients with end-stage renal disease, nephrologists play an indispensable role in diagnosis, treatment, and management. Kidney diseases require a multidisciplinary approach, with nephrologists working closely with other specialists, such as dietitians, nurses, and social workers, to ensure comprehensive care for patients. 
  Historically, nephrology has made significant strides in both research and clinical care. The discovery of the kidney’s essential functions, including its ability to filter waste and maintain homeostasis, paved the way for understanding kidney diseases. The development of dialysis in the mid-20th century allowed patients with kidney failure to survive by mimicking the filtration functions of the kidneys.
