Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references
This volume on the ethical justifiability of assisted dying goes beyond traditional
debates on topics such as the value of human life and questions surrounding intention
and causation. Essays reconsider the role of patient autonomy and paternalistic reasons
as well as the roles proposed for medical professionals and clinical ethics consultations
in connection with assisted dying; relates the debate on assisted dying to questions
about organ donation and developments in medical technology; and demonstrates the
significance of experimental philosophy in assessing questions of assisted dying.--From
