Annotation: The issue of suicide has sparked intense controversy and debate throughout human history. This volume identifies the multiple, complex meanings of the act from Biblical times to the present. At various points in time, suicide has been viewed as a legal escape from dishonor, an example of the devil's work on earth, a product of mental illness, and a reasonable decision to be made by any adult. This anthology presents arguments both for and against the legitimacy of suicide in a balanced, informed manner.
