dc.description.abstract Are medical students and doctors in South Africa well informed on how to handle questions about euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide, and are they able to respond to their patients with information that is correct and evidence-based? Do we learn from Europe, with their Exit and ‘dignity clinics’ where doctors help you to end your life? Do we teach the ‘art of dying with dignity’? Maybe Do You Call This A Life?: Blurred Boundaries in The Netherlands’ Right-To-Die Laws, by van Loenen is food for thought. en_ZA
