The Right to Die

(4) YA Point-Counterpoint series. This series uses a debate format to explore contemporary issues. For example, one chapter in the book on euthanasia argues for state bans on physician-assisted suicide, and the following chapter argues that such a ban prolongs patients' suffering. The writing is solid but dense; personal stories and some photographs enliven the textbooklike presentation. Reading list, websites. Ind. Review covers these Point-Counterpoint titles: The Right to Die and Prisoners' Rights.
