For many, the right to die often means the right to die with dignity. This book moves beyond margins of the law to the people who are meticulously planning their final hours and the people who help them. Journalist Katie Engelhart focuses on six people representing different aspects of the debate. Spanning Australia, North America, and Europe, Engelhart presents a deeply reported portrait of everyday people struggling to make hard decisions, and wrestling back a measure of authenticity and dignity to their lives.
