Psychiatre de liaison et ancien président de la Société Suisse de Médecine et de Soins Palliatifs, l'auteur décrit le parcours du patient gravement malade et mourant. La dégradation du corps, leb souffrances physiques et psychologiques, le diagnostic de phase terminale sonnant comme un verdict et la mort sont des réalités aujourd'hui très présentes dans nos systèmes de santé. Le mouvement des soins palliatifs s'est fait le porte-parole de cette nouvelle mission médicale qui, s'opposant à la médecine curative, a pour objectif la prise en compte des personnes incurables et en fin de vie, refusant également la notion d'une vie " qui ne vaut pas la peine d'être vécue ", considérée comme indigne par les partisans de l'euthanasie. Hormis le propos concernant la prise en charge médicale des patients, il aborde quelques réflexions sur sa pratique quotidienne et invite le lecteur à réfléchir sur les questions de fond que posent les choix politiques en matière de santé et, en particulier, les rapports que notre société entretient avec la mort. Il s'adresse à un public diversifié comprenant à la fois les professionnels de la santé et de la médecine et tous ceux qui sont concernés ou intéressés par ses implications sociales.
