Twelve papers address five topic areas of medical ethics in relation to aging: quality of life, palliative care, euthanasia, suicide, and research ethics. The papers are broadly focused on ideal ethical practice, but also critically examine current practice. The authors represented often take differing stances towards the issues, with a particular divergence on such controversial issues as the legalization of assisted suicide. Annotation c.

Decisions at the End of Life is the last volume in a trilogy on Aging conceived for the International Library of Ethics, Law, and the New Medicine. Leading scholars from a range of disciplines examine some of the most emotive topics in the study of aging: assessing quality of life, improving end-of-life care, palliative care, euthanasia, and consent to research.
