This work is a sequel to Battin's 1994 volume \u003cem\u003eThe Least Worst Death\u003c\/em\u003e. The last ten years have seen fast-moving developments in end-of-life issues, from the legalization of physician-assisted suicide in Oregon and the Netherlands, to a furor over proposed restrictions of scheduled drugs used for causing death, and the development of \"NuTech\" methods of assistance in dying. Battin's new collection covers a remarkably wide range of end-of-life topics, including suicide prevention, AIDS, suicide bombing, serpent-handling and other religious practices that pose a risk of death, genetic prognostication, suicide in old age, global justice and the \"duty to die.\" It also examines suicide, physician-assisted suicide, and euthanasia in both American and international contexts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs with the earlier volume, these new essays are theoretically adroit but draw richly from historical sources, fictional techniques, and ample factual material.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargaret Pabst Battin\u003c\/strong\u003e is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Adjunct Professor of Internal Medicine, Division of Medical Ethics, at the University of Utah.
