Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide, Lessons from Belgium is part of a series of books from Cambridge University Press where the focus is to ground theoretical debate in the realities of law and medical practice. The book does precisely this and more. Although the book does not restrict itself to the situation in Belgium, Belgium provides the largest body of empirical research as indicated by the editors. However, the authors draw upon this research not simply to describe realities. In addition the book presents a critical consideration of how changes in the law on euthanasia and assisted suicide impact society.
