Cancer treatment has advanced remarkably, offering hope and extending life for many. But with these advances, clinicians and policymakers are increasingly faced with the complex and challenging questions surrounding end-of-life care. How can we ensure the highest quality of life for patients with relapsed disease? What does a well-informed dialogue on assisted dying look like, and who should guide it?
For healthcare professionals, legislators, and the wider public, navigating these choices requires the most current and accurate information. The updated edition of a previous volume End of Life Choices for Cancer Patients provides a crucial resource for this evolving landscape.
Building on the 2020 edition, this book assembles a multi-professional team of contributors-experts in oncology, palliative care, law, and allied health professions. They offer a balanced, evidence-based exploration of modern end-of-life care, focusing on patient needs, international developments, and the far-reaching implications of legislative change.
Inside, you will find:
* Updated information and insights reflecting recent parliamentary considerations on Assisted Dying in the UK.
* An exploration of the multifaceted responsibilities of healthcare professionals in guiding patients through difficult end-of-life decisions.
* A clear distinction between the roles of medical expertise and social opinion in shaping public policy on assisted dying, as defined by a 2019 expert workshop.
* Context for legislative debates, equipping professionals and the public with the facts needed for a balanced and informed discussion.
This is more than a book; it is an essential tool for professional colleagues, legislators, and concerned citizens alike, offering clarity and support in one of the most challenging areas of modern medicine. This guide will ensure your practice, your policies, and your understanding are grounded in the latest evidence.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This is a clear, balanced overview of international experience with Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD). It draws on medical literature, government reports, and official data from around the world to help inform public and professional discussion. It updates work conducted and published in 2020 in the book End of Life Choices for Cancer Patients.More than 280 million people live in countries where some form of assisted dying is legal. International evidence shows that with clear rules, strong safeguards, and professional support, VAD can be provided safely and respectfully. Across all jurisdictions, strong regulation, adequate resources, and professional training are essential. Continuous oversight and transparency remain crucial. Doctors, nurses, and allied professionals must have access to training, supervision, and the ability to opt out on grounds of conscience.Assisted dying raises difficult moral and emotional issues for healthcare staff. Even in countries with long experience, many professionals find participation challenging. Some now specialise in VAD to manage the ethical and technical complexities. All agree that high-quality palliative care remains essential. Most patients who choose VAD have already received palliative care but want control over the timing and nature of death. Neurodegenerative diseases, such as motor neurone disease, need special planning because of the risk of losing mental or physical capacity before a decision can be acted on.For countries like the UK who are deciding whether to change the law, much can be learned from decades of international experience and evidence - especially from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the USA and parts of Europe - to design a system that protects vulnerable people, pays attention to the views and needs of disabled and disadvantaged people, respects those with ethical or religious objections, supports healthcare professionals, and respects individual choice.
