Dying with Dignity - on ABC 'Australia Talks'



On the ABC Radio National's Australia Talks series, this week, for listening or download:  In an ageing society, with science improving medical care, should we have the right to choose voluntary euthanasia?  What about those who are not sick, but simply too tired of life to go on?  And when should doctors withdraw the treatment keeping the dying alive?  ABC Radio National's Paul Barclay will explore these questions in a special live Australia Talks program in collaboration with the Australian Science Festival.
On the panel for this live radio discussion will be (1) voluntary euthanasia campaigner Dr Philip Nitschke, (2) Australian Catholic University's Associate Professor Patrick McArdle, (2) Palliative Care Australia's President Elect Dr Scott Blackwell, and (4) Dr Kaarin Anstey, Director of the Ageing Research Unit at the ANU's Centre for Mental Health Research.
