"Does a person have the right to end his or her own life? Is suicide always an irrational choice? Is it evidence of insanity? Do other persons have the right or obligation to intervene in an individual's attempt at suicide, or is suicide prevention an infringement of the individual's rights? Is there a legal right to suicide, or to assist someone who asks for help in ending his or her life? Is what we term heroism or self-sacrifice a kind of suicide, and if so, on what basis do we allow it? Can suicide be meaningful? Can it ever be morally right?"--Inside front flap.
