Colour illustrated paperback binding. The book shows no signs of damage. A book that discusses the morality and ethics and legal position of euthanasia.

Almost by definition, the people for whom the question of euthanasia will arise will be people who have disabilities. Sometimes those disabilities will be acquired through illness, sometimes not. For this reason we have felt it particularly important to bring some of the disability issues to the fore, and to ensure that people with disabilities themselves contribute to the discussion."
