Description

Aiming to Kill: The Ethics of Suicide and Euthanasia by Nigel Biggar The debate over euthanasia and assisted suicide has been ongoing for generations, with no clear resolution in sight. This book offers a fresh perspective on the issue, drawing on both theological and philosophical resources to explore the underlying questions that drive the controversy. Biggar tackles three key issues: what makes human life valuable, whether it is ever morally acceptable to intend to kill someone, and how society should respond to the potential consequences of legalising euthanasia or assisted suicide. By carefully examining these questions, he aims to contribute to a more mature understanding of this complex issue. This book provides a thought-provoking analysis of one of the most contentious topics in modern ethics, making it an important resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the subject.
