Voluntary Euthanasia

The euthanasia debate has been brought under the media spotlight in recent years, following a number of high-profile cases in which terminally-ill patients have campaigned for a change to the assisted suicide legislation. Author Terry Pratchett's recent documentary, which featured a man ending his life at the Dignitas Clinic in Switzerland, caused widespread controversy. This book looks at the ethical and medical issues surrounding the assisted dying debate. Voluntary Euthanasia offers a useful overview of the many issues involved in this topic.
