Description
A Dignified Ending challenges the idea that prolonging life by every means possible is the only reasonable response to a dire diagnosis or to intractable suffering. It uses true accounts to illustrate how people have choreographed their deaths, and it recommends that death with dignity laws include dementias and other neurodegenerative disorders.
Advance Praise
"A Dignified Ending by Dr. Lewis M. Cohen is a brilliant exposition laying out the case for dying with dignity. Having just lost a brother-in-law to metastatic cancer, who begged to be released from his great pain, I can only thank Dr. Cohen for this important and extremely well written book." — Alan Chartock, WAMC President and CEO
