353 S. Zustand: Fast sehr gut, SU etwas beschabt. Papier alters- und qualitätsbedingt gebräunt. - Not so long ago, most people died at home. Death was swift and often a relief. Today it is much more common for people in the West to die in hospital. Due to the wizardry of modern medical advances, formerly lethal ailments such as…pneumonia, the 'old man's friend' are arrested, while more chronic, degenerative diseases persist. Thus, the elderly in particular are kept alive a longer period of time, when one fatal disease is often replaced by another, more prolonged one. The result ? A widespread fear of being trapped in a hospital bed against one's will, with self-control and dignity gone while life-support machines control bodily functions. - In this wide-ranging milestone study, Derek Humphry and Ann Wickett explore the history, philosophy, and practice of euthanasia. When was it an acceptable custom ? How do we define death today ? Should the patient be allowed to choose its timing, or should that be the prerogative of the medical profession ? What part should courts play, especially when there is a dispute ? Has a court the right to force a chronically ill person to endure a protracted death against his will, or to authorise a doctor to 'help' a patient to an early death? What does the upsurge in mercy killing cases teil us? - These are questions that affect us all. In this provocative and authoritative study, the authors provide a comprehensive view of a timely and explosive subject. - Derek Humphry was born in Somerset in 1930 and became a journalist in 1945. He worked for the Daily Mail for ten years and The Sunday Times for twelve, ending his newspaper career on the Los Angeles Times. He won the Martin Luther King Memorial Prize in the UK for his first book, Because They're Black, and is the author of four other books on race relations and the administration of the law. He became involved in euthanasia with the publication in 1978 of jean' s Way, an account of how he helped his terminally ill wife to die, and followed this in 1981 with Let Me Die Before 1 Wake. - In 1980, in Los Angeles where he now lives, Derek Humphry was principal founder of the Hemlock Society, of which he is executive director. - Ann Wickett, who was born in Boston Mass., took an MA in English Literature at Toronto University and studied for a PhD at the Shakespeare Institute, Birmingham University. Co-founder of the Hemlock Society, she is also editor of its quarterly newsletter and The Euthanasia Review. She has made a special study of the law and psychology of mercy killing. - It is hard to understand whv one should postpone death when one is no longer enjoying life, but the right to die with dignity has never been strongly defended. Humphry and Wickett are doing much to ease the suffering of old people.' B. F. Skinner Harvard University - Jacket by ELAINE McGREGOR TURNE.
