| Summary: | For centuries, philosophical debate has focused on concepts such as "person", the "value" and "quality" of life, "rights", "suffering", "life" and "death".

This book is intended as a reflection on certain aspects of the debate on the moral legitimacy of non-voluntary euthanasia, through a critical discussion of the principal philosophical notions utilised in bioethics. |
