Description: Medically Assisted Death by Robert Young Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Does a competent person with a terminal illness who considers their life no longer of value, have a right to be helped to die? This book offers a case in support of specified instances of medically assisted death and responses to the main objections to it. Publisher Description Does a competent person suffering from a terminal illness or enduring an otherwise burdensome existence, who considers his life no longer of value but is incapable of ending it, have a right to be helped to die? Should someone for whom further medical treatment would be futile be allowed to die regardless of expressing a preference to be given all possible treatment? These are some of the questions that are asked and answered in this wide-ranging discussion of both the morality of medically assisted death and the justifiability of making certain instances legal. A case is offered in support of the moral and legal permissibility of specified instances of medically assisted death, along with responses to the main objections that have been levelled against it. The philosophical argument is bolstered by empirical evidence from The Netherlands and Oregon where voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide are already legal.
