This little book on Assisted Suicide is a very helpful resource for anyone coming to consider the difficult question of the place of human choice at the end of life for the first time. With a tone both sensitive and authentic in its shaping by personal experience, Vaughan Roberts offers an erudite yet accessible survey of an issue set only to increase in significance as the realities of changing demographics materialise. Placing the common arguments in favour of the legalisation of Assisted Suicide under the microscope of a Biblical world-view, Roberts articulates the unique message of truth and hope which Christians can, must, speak as they themselves embody the costly and redeeming love necessary to make real dignity in dying available to everyone. Handy definitions of terms, discussion guides and recommendations for further reading will prove invaluable to those who want to progress to more detailed thinking on the issue.
