The book explores the evolving role of Intensive Care Units, where advanced medical technology aims to save lives but increasingly serves patients who may not survive. It highlights the growing trend of providing end-of-life care within ICUs, raising ethical dilemmas for clinicians faced with patients unlikely to recover. Based on research conducted in 2007, the narrative examines how healthcare providers navigate the challenges of delivering compassionate care while grappling with the reality of impending death, ultimately questioning the purpose of intensive treatment in such cases.
