Abstract
Euthanasia is a burning ethical issue as some people have an opinion that it
is better for a person to die than suffer from a painful and incurable disease. Murderers
hide behind euthanasia and cause the death of a human no matter what the reason is
against human dignity. This chapter revolves around the topic of critical ethical issues
pertaining to the ‘end of life’, which includes euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide
(PAS). Information that can help society cope with this ethical issue (Euthanasia) is
explained, as nowadays, people are more careless towards weak, old and ill people. The
concept of long-term care for terminally ill patients seems to have become very rare,
and people have started considering death better than life. This piece of information
will help create public understanding regarding euthanasia as a professional, ethical
issue, its prevalence across the world, causative factors, and some strategies to
overcome euthanasia.
