Ethical and legal issues concerning physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia
are very much on the public agenda in many jurisdictions. In this timely book
L.W. Sumner addresses these issues within the wider context of palliative care for
patients in the dying process. His ethical conclusion is that a bright line between
assisted death and other widely accepted end-of-life practices, including the with¬
drawal of life-sustaining treatment, pain control through high-dose opioids, and
terminal sedation, cannot be justified. In the course of the ethical argument many
familiar themes are given careful and thorough treatment: conceptions of death,
the badness of death, the wrongness of killing, informed consent and refusal, the
ethics of suicide, cause of death, the double effect, the sanctity of life, the 'active/
passive'distinction, advance directives, and nonvoluntary euthanasia. The legal
discussion opens with a survey of some prominent prohibitionist and regulatory
regimes and then outlines a model regulatory policy for assisted death. Sumner
concludes by defending this policy against a wide range of common objections,
including those which appeal to slippery slopes or the possibility of abuse, and
by asking how the transition to a regulatory regime might be managed in three
common law prohibitionist jurisdictions. |
