Is assisted suicide a way to "die with dignity"? How to react to the suffering that pushes a person to want to end their life? What does the Bible say?

Assisted suicide is a complex problem that requires philosophical, medical, biblical, legal and ethical reflection. However, to stick to these considerations alone would be a mistake, because it is also an intimate and personal matter.

Vaughan Roberts studies the teaching of the Bible on death and dying and seeks to apply the fundamentals of Christian thought to the many complex issues surrounding euthanasia and assisted suicide. This book offers an overview that will allow the reader to take a sensitive position on this delicate subject.
