Tim Falconer - Talk and Discussion
Friday Jun 12 2009 7:00 pm, Toronto, In the Events Space, 2nd Floor

Tim Falconer will be discussing That Good Night: Ethicists, Euthanasia and End-of-Life Care, his book about the two conversations – one private and one public -- we need to have. The first is with our families about how we want to die. Medical advances mean our demise will likely be a negotiated event, not simply nature taking its course. But to make sure we get the death we want, our loved ones must know our wishes and they will only know if we tell them. The second conversation we owe ourselves is a public debate about legalizing assisted suicide in Canada. In That Good Night, Tim Falconer once again transforms a complicated subject into a thoughtful, readable and engaging book, one that shows us what ethicists do while tackling the difficult dilemmas that precede the modern death. By sharing the compelling stories of those who’ve made hard choices, by considering living wills and by exploring the merits of assisted suicide and euthanasia, That Good Night untangles a topic that touches us all.
