Physician‐Assisted Suicide: Promoting Autonomy—Or Medicalizing Suicide?
Hastings Center Report 29 (3):30-36 (1999)

But physician assistance and measures proposed to safeguard patients from coercion in fact return ultimate authority over this “private and deeply personal” decision to medicine and society.Other Versions
