"In Assisted Suicide C.G. Prado and S.J. Taylor provide a comprehensive discussion of relevant moral and ethical concerns. As Prado and Taylor point out, legalization is not the central issue, since doctor-assisted suicide is already taking place regardless of its illegality. Instead, the debate concerns acknowledging and sanctioning a current (albeit limited) practice, removing the criminal penalties, and framing the discussion in terms of the truly important questions: When does assisted suicide make good sense? When should it be permitted? What is the nature of patient consent? And what professional ethics should govern its provision?"--Jacket.

An examination of the dying process as it is experienced in painful and debilitating diseases from the point of view of the sufferers and their families. The author considers the idea of assisted suicides, and also reflects on religious, moral and legal issues involved in someone's death. This book is written for all those who are concerned about how their life may end - and who wish to die without unnecessary suffering. Dr. Charles F. McKhann discusses many aspects of physician-assisted dying and explains why he thinks it should be made legally available under certain circumstances. Dr. McKhann, a specialist in cancer surgery, has conducted in-depth interviews with people who were dying form a variety of illnesses and with the physicians who cared for them. Drawing on these interviews and on his own experiences as a physician, he looks at the dying process as it is encountered in painful and debilitating diseases, and he considers the needs of patients and their families. Dr. McKhann presents the case for rational suicide, comparing a failed suicide attempt in the United States with a planned death in the Netherlands and illustrating the differences in approach and attitudes. He describes the forms of physician assistance already taking place and acknowledges the physician's personal and professional concerns. And he reflects on relevant religious, moral, legal, and public-policy issues that are currently so widely debated. His thought-provoking book is a valuable resource not only for the general public but also for compassionate physicians who attend people with fatal diseases and for lawmakers who strive for understanding and courage in dealing with this new challenge.

'Evangelium vitae' apparaît comme un traité d'authentique théologie morale : cette encyclique relie parfaitement la raison humaine et les lumières de la foi 'Fides et ratio' et applique les recommandations du concile Vatican II de perfectionner la théologie morale en une présentation amplement scientifique, plus nourrie de la Sainte Ecriture et qui souligne avec vigueur la vocation universelle à la sainteté. Pourquoi un respect absolu est-il dû à la personne? La raison humaine offre déjà une réponse, mais celle-ci n'est pas exhaustive sans la théologie. Cet ouvrage, en deux tomes, constitue un commentaire de cette encyclique, hymne à la vie et réaffirmation de son inviolabilité. Cet apport est l'objet du second volume : A la lumière de la foi. Dans la vie théologique, l'auteur présente la source, le cœur et la fin de l'anthropologie : la vie de l'homme est la vie d'une personne créée à l'image de Dieu, enfin, dans la vie éthique, sont abordés les grands thèmes de la morale de la vie : avortement, droits de l'embryon, légitime défense, suicide, peine de mort et euthanasie. Servir ou utiliser la vie : il n'y a pas d'autre choix.
