This address is a radical inquiry into voluntary death (“death control”). Is suicide legal? Should involuntary suicide prevention be legal? Should physician-assisted suicide be legal? Personal careers, professional identities, multi-billion dollar industries, legal doctrines, judicial procedures and the liberty of every American hangs on our answers and on our justifications for them.

Educational Objectives:

1. To describe the historical, religious, ethical, medical, psychological and legal aspects of voluntary death.
2. To demonstrate that the medical-legal status of suicide is one of the core issues undergirding and governing mental health practices.
