Voluntary euthanasia
— letting people decide for themselves | | Author(s) | P Baume |
| Journal title | Australian Journal on Ageing, vol 16, no 1,, 1997 |
| Pages | p 8 |

| Annotation | The author argues that it should be possible to make dying less awful for some people than it is today. He also makes the case that a decision made by a competent person is no business of any other person. In the absence of anything better, voluntary euthanasia should be supported, and that the Northern Territories legislation should be 'given a go' without being overturned. Dying needs to be made more dignified, more pain free, and less of an ordeal - nothing more. |
