Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law: From Conflict to Compromise: Biomedical Law and Ethics Library
Autor Richard Huxtableen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 noi 2007
In mounting his case Richard Huxtable considers some familiar and topical debates, including assisted suicide and voluntary euthanasia, examining such situations as the Dianne Pretty litigation and Lord Joffe's Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill. The book also enters some important, but less well-charted areas, looking at the advent of 'death tourism' and the real status of involuntary and passive euthanasia in English law, in addition to clarifying the confusion that surrounds the use of powerful painkillers like morphine. Dealing with both legal and ethical issues, the text concludes that the time has come to more openly adopt a compromise position - one that more honestly recognises and accommodates the competing values, whilst also restoring a measure of coherence to the law.

Descriere
Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law argues that the law governing the ending of life in England and Wales is unclear, confused and often contradictory. It shows that the rules are in competition because the ethical principles underlying them are so diverse and conflicting. This book covers topics including the Diane Pretty litigation, Lord Joffe's Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill, the advent of 'death tourism' and the real status of involuntary and passive euthanasia in English law.
