The servise this book performs is making a careful examination of the opposing fronts and drawing ecumenically on both theological and philosophical resouces and pioneers an original way through to a mature judgement by tackling three basic questions: What makeshuman life valuable? Can it ever be moral to intend to kill someone? How much should we fear the wider, social effects of legalising euthanasia or assisted suicide?
