Beschreibung

"This book is exceptional. Coelho, Gaind, and Lemmens have edited a deeply informative collection that unpacks the history of medical assistance in dying in Canada and reveals its disproportionately harmful impact on persons with disabilities. The chapters helpfully bring together law, politics, medicine, and disability studies as they discuss and interrogate Canada's rapid policy developments - developments that increasingly favour death in lieu of social supports, therapy, and palliative care." Laverne Jacobs, University of Windsor and co-author of Law and Disability in Canada: Cases and Materials
