- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Paul & Co Pub Consortium
- Publish date: 06/01/1997
Description:
Physician-assisted suicide occurs when terminally ill patients take the decision to end their life with the help of their doctor. It is a scenario which both frightens people and inflames moral passions.
Expand description
In this courageous and informative book, the authors argue clearly and forcefully for the legalization of physician-assisted suicide because: medical advances will mean more and more terminally ill people find themselves kept alive against their wishes; the autonomy of the patient must be the deciding factor; physicians are best placed to provide the means for suicide; and it is already happening anyway. Containing original research, historical contexts and cogent analysis, this powerful document by two acknowledged experts in the field is essential reading for anyone concerned with the ethics of medicine.
