This volume identifies the multiple, complex meanings of the act from Biblical times to the present. At various points in time, suicide has been viewed as a legal escape from dishonor, an example of the devil's work on earth, a product of mental illness, and a reasonable decision to be made by any adult. This anthology presents arguments both for and against the legitimacy of suicide in a balanced, informed manner. |
