A Concise History Of Euthanasia

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

In this first book to explore the history of euthanasia worldwide since classical antiquity, distinguished historian Ian Dowbiggin exposes the many disturbing themes that link present and past in the concept of the right to die. His deeply informed history traces the controversial record of "mercy killing," a source of heated debate among doctors and laypeople alike. Dowbiggin examines evolving opinions about what constitutes a good death, taking into account the societal and religious values placed on sin, suffering, resignation, judgment, penance, and redemption. He also examines the bitter struggle between those who advocate for the right to compassionate and effective end-of-life care and those who justify euthanasia by defining human life in terms of biological criteria, utilitarian standards, a faith in science, humane medical treatment, the principle of personal autonomy, or individual human rights. The author considers both the influence of technological and behavioral changes in the practice of medicine and the public's surprising lack of awareness of death's many clinical and biological dimensions. Dowbiggin reminds us that the stakes in the struggle are enormously high, with the lives of countless vulnerable people hanging in the balance. His provocative historical perspective will be indispensable as patients, families, governments, and the medical community debate when it is time to let go of life. Bound to spark controversy, this book takes issue with the right-to-die movement over the question of legalizing either assisted suicide or actual lethal injection (mercy-killing) and raises profound personal and collective questions on the future of euthanasia.

The Unveiling

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Applying all seven keys introduced in Book 1 of The Unveiling: The Book of Sevens, we now open The Seven Visions revealing seven facets of a comprehensive revelation. The goal is to bring understanding to the Book of Revelation that is readable, devotional, and applicable. The intent is to bring hope and light on this perplexing and rarely taught book. The Revelation is not intended to be an indecipherable enigma, it is not meant to puzzle and bewilder but to disclose God’s plan, purpose, and provision to His bond servants. Therefore, to that end, the purpose is to bring the authors comments on each facet of The Revelation to the reader with these goals in mind. The Book of Revelation is unveiled as a seven faceted jewel. The seven visions of the Book of Revelation open to God’s bond servants the insight and encouragement needed to persevere until He comes. It reveals the fulfillment of old testament prophecy with Israel’s Great Day of the Lord in 70 AD while in these same visions reveals the cataclysmic end of this age. These two tracks of judgment bring to a conclusion the “former days” and introduce “these last days” as prophetically revealed throughout Scripture. “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it; for the time is near.” (Revelation 1:3)

Sermons

BOOK EXCERPT:

The Divine goodness, dearly beloved, has indeed always taken thought for mankind in divers manners, and in many portions, and of His mercy has imparted many gifts of His providence to the ages of old; but in these last times has exceeded all the abundance of His usual kindness, when in Christ the very Mercy has descended to sinners, the very Truth to those that are astray, the very Life to those that are dead: so that Word, which is co-eternal and co-equal with the Father, might take our humble nature into union with His Godhead, and, being born God of God, might also be born Man of man. This was indeed promised from the foundation of the world, and had always been prophesied by many intimations of facts and words : but how small a portion of mankind would these types and fore-shadowed mysteries have saved, had not the coming of Christ fulfilled those long and secret promises: and had not that which then benefited but a few believers in the prospect, now benefited myriads of the faithful in its accomplishment.

Assisted Suicide And Euthanasia

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

As medical technology advances and severely injured or ill people can be kept alive and functioning long beyond what was previously medically possible, the debate surrounding the ethics of end-of-life care and quality-of-life issues has grown more urgent. In this lucid and vigorous book, Craig Paterson revitalises the natural law approach to moral reasoning and defends the central normative proposition that 'it is always a serious moral wrong to intentionally kill an innocent human person, whether self or another, notwithstanding any further appeal to consequences or motive'.
