It is a valuable contribution to the ongoing end of life arguments.
But it is from a very traditional physician's point of view: drugs for pain, chemotherapy and surgery for cancer and heart failures. It does not add to the right to end life discussions and legislation in Canada and/or some USA states, not to mention the right to active end of life as in Switzerland or the Netherlands, to mention just two jurisdictions. Nor does it mention alternative palliative/pain care: morphine is acceptable, how about marijuana?
Still, a recommended reading/listening, as it shows where the mainstream medical establishment is going on the issue. And to prepare yourself if you do not intend to follow that path.
