Praise for The Least Worst Death: Essays in Bioethics on the End of
Life
"Battin is not only a good philosopher, she is a practical
philosopher. She adopts a problem-oriented approach to bioethics,
selecting a specific issue and always attempting to provide
circumspect and reasoned solutions."--Journal of Medical Ethics
"She is surely one of the most erudite and articulate scholars
pondering questions of euthanasia, suicide, and the withdrawal of
medical treatment in the Western world."-- Arthur L. Caplan,
Ethics
"She does what analytically trained philosophers do best, namely,
provide illuminating analyses and clarifications of difficult
concepts and advance logically rigorous arguments in support of her
analyses and positions."--Medical Humanities Review
"Margaret Pabst Battin is one of the most intelligent writers on
medical ethics."--Studies in Christian Ethics
