Question: Do individuals have the right to die in certain terminal instances,
and is it ethical for physicians to assist in their suicide if they choose?

This source offers a variety of recollections, stances, and opinions from
individuals that have experience and knowledge regarding physician assisted
suicide. The records range from a terminal cancer patient to a widower and
all the way to attorneys and doctor's as well. There are a total of 23 sections
within this book that all discuss the ethics of physician assisted suicide as
well as whether or not individuals should have the right to choose if that is
the path they would like to take.

This ebook is broken up into three separate parts: Part one covers certain
dilemmas that people feel about dying, part two covers the historical,
religious, and cultural concerns that regard the ethics of physician assisted
suicide, informed consent, and the procedure of it all, and part three covers
dilemmas about dying in a global future. This source covers a variety of
aspects connected to physician assisted suicide and the ethics connected to
it as well.
These new sources offer different perspectives form a vast number of
individuals having knowledge or connection to the concept of physician
assisted suicide and the right to die for patients who may have been
diagnosed with a terminal illness. These sources are different from the
precious sources because the offer more insight about the process and
actual relation of individuals close to physician assisted suicide, where the
other sources I noted focused more on the aspect of the physician and not
the patient or those related to the patient. The sources corroborate on
common ground however because the new ones do offer insight from the
physician standpoint still while providing extra outside insight and opinion
that may have been missing from the previous sources. The previous
publications were electronically accessed journal publications but both of
these new sources are ebooks.
