5.0 out of 5 stars A great book that clearly identified the issues., September 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Euthanasia: Moral and Pastoral Perspectives (Paperback)

This was an excellent book that helped to clarify the issues related to hastening death and allowing to die from the Catholic perspective. One is euthansia and one is not. An important book to read for anyone considering a living will or dealing with issues of death and dying. Simple and concise.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Extremely Helpful Handbook on Moral Issues of Euthanasia, May 30, 2000

This review is from: Euthanasia: Moral and Pastoral Perspectives (Paperback)

Richard Gula's book is a concise, clear, and complete examination of the moral issue of Euthanasia. It deals with issues such as Autonomy and the Common Good. It was especially helpful to me as a care giver for a member of my family who was suffering and dying of cancer. It helped me to clarify the issues and to answer many of my questions and the questions of others in my family. More importantly, it motivated me to read the Word of God and to enter into a deeper prayer with the Lord. This book is easily understandable to the layman and also meets the needs for academic research. It is a book I have read more than once and will continue to read.

This review is from: Euthanasia: Moral and Pastoral Perspectives (Paperback)

This book addresses the euthanasia debate from all sides including those less obvious - the book challenged me to think. It also gives clear definition and distinctions reinforced by the author's experience
