This book takes up where Derek Humphry's l986 history of euthanasia "The Right To Die" left off.
It reports and comments upon the famous right-to-die cases of the last 20 years and political developments
such as the passing of the unique Oregon assisted suicide law.
Over the last decade, America has served as the battleground for a major political, social, cultural,
and religious war over one of the most fundamental questions we face: the right to die. Much like abortion
in the 1970s, the right to die has emerged as one of the most urgent social issues for the
coming years.
