Abstract
This book is one of a series, Horizons in Bioethics, by the Center for Bioethics and Human dignity in Bannockburn, Illinois. Kilner is director of this organization. There are twenty chapters, each by a different author, including one each by the editors. There is no biographical information, other than the affiliation of each author. Pellegrino is a well_known bioethicist. I had not read about any of the others. The authors include various types of academics, nurses, physicians, and pastors. Two of the authors, one writing about the Oregon Death with Dignity act, are from Europe.
