Selbstbestimmt Sterben

"Self-Determined Dying" is a book that encourages reflection on one's own attitude towards life and death. It does not offer one-size-fits-all solutions, but provides concrete suggestions on how to prepare for the final phase of life in a way that aligns with one's own wishes. Gian Domenico Borasio explains in clear and understandable language what truly matters on the path to a self-determined end of life. The public debate about the end of life is irresponsibly reduced to the question of euthanasia or assisted suicide. However, these options for leaving life, even where they are legally permitted, affect only a tiny fraction of the population. But what about the vast majority of people for whom it is not about wanting to determine the timing of their own death? What does self-determined dying mean?.
