A Chosen Death: The Dying Confront Assisted Suicide
University of California Press (1998)
Abstract
In a moving examination of one of the most troubling issues of our time, Lonny Shavelson puts a human face on the legal and ethical discussions that surround assisted suicide. By recounting with great intimacy and compassion the personal histories of five terminally ill people, he exposes the depth and complexity of this explosive issue.Other Versions
