The 21st century is facing an unprecedented trend of population
aging, including in many regions in the Asia Pacific region.
Governments and healthcare systems recognise the importance of
Advance Care Planning (ACP) in helping people to live well and to
leave well.ACP is a complex intervention that is culture and
context specific. In our universal endeavour to engender person
centred care in healthcare systems and a more compassionate
society, we are more similar than different. In this day and age of
fast developing medical technologies and evolving social norms, ACP
brims with both challenges and potential and a renewed
understanding is needed.This book is a paean to the multifaceted
nature of ACP as well as a timely update regarding the current
landscape of ACP implementation and practice across the Asia
Pacific region.
