Euthanasia: A Reference Handbook (Contemporary World Issues)

Book Description:
Grade 10 Up. Beginning with the early philosophers’ views on the right to die, this well-organized volume traces the history of and medical developments in euthanasia. Although some of the reading is slow going (laws and documents), the text is well written and objective. Case studies are presented in a straightforward manner and include extensive documentation and attributable quotes. The chapters dealing with euthanasia in other countries and biographical information on key figures are especially helpful. Other sections focus on periodicals, non-print material, organizations, and the Internet. The tables, graphs, and maps clearly present statistics that can often be confusing.
