«La eutanasia» is the philosophical essay by Nicolas Aumonier, Bernard Beignier and Philippe Letellier (Davinci Continental, paperback, 128 pages, in Spanish).
It starts from the premise that, in certain circumstances, a person may prefer death to life, a stance that clashes with medical deontology: the doctor must relieve suffering, but not deliberately cause death. The work reviews the history of euthanasia, its legal regulation and the ethical and philosophical dilemmas raised by a debate marked by advances in medicine.
The work belongs to the collection «¿Qué sé?» (no. 15) and was first published in April 2009.
For readers interested in moral philosophy, bioethics and the social debate on the end of life.
