Almost Over: Aging, Dying, Dead
Kamm, F.M. (Henry Rutgers University Professor of Philosophy and Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Henry Rutgers University Professor of Philosophy and Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Rutgers University)
This book by noted philosopher F. M. Kamm is a philosophical discussion of moral, legal, and medical issues related to aging, dying, and death. One of its aims is to decide whether and when it might make sense to not resist or bring about the end of one's life. To answer this question it considers views about meaning in life and what makes life worth living. It evaluates recent attempts to help the general public plan in advance for the end of life. It also considers whether or not physician-assisted suicide is morally permissible and if it should be legalized.
