`All in all, this is a volume that is indispensable for any
academic library worthy of the name. ...To attempt to reflect upon
these issues without the historical background and argumentation
found in this brief volume would be to put oneself at a great
disadvantage. On that basis I recommend it wholeheartedly.'
Ethics, January 1992
`The volume ... is of great value in addressing the historical
issues, and one can earnestly hope that it will be widely used to
enhance the sophistication and historical sensitivity of
contemporary discussions of the ethics of suicide and
euthanasia.'
