231Life and death decision makingOxford University Press. 1988.Integrating theory with case studies, this book examines the practical application of moral theory in clinical decision-making through 40 composite cases based on actual clinical experience.

221Redistribution Without EgalitarianismSocial Philosophy and Policy 1 (1): 71. 1983.I will, in this paper, set out the philosophical foundations and the basic structure of a new theory of justice.

31Taking Issue: Pluralism and Casuistry in BioethicsGeorgetown University Press. 2003."When it comes to morality as it is practiced in medicine, Brody makes clear that the ethical issues are never as simple as black and white - that there are myriad factors and fine nuances that can and should challenge decision making as it is commonly practiced in difficult medical cases. In this collection, delving thoughtfully and systematically into methodology, research ethics, clinical ethics, and Jewish medical ethics, he tackles thorny life-and-death questions head-on and fearlessly.
