A French-language nonfiction work examining euthanasia through moral, ethical, and medical questions. Drawing on Lucien Israël’s medical background and interview material, the book presents a critical view of arguments used to justify euthanasia and explores the responsibilities of physicians, patients, families, and society at the end of life. It considers how decisions about death intersect with human vulnerability, professional judgment, and the limits of individual autonomy. Rather than treating the issue as only a legal or technical matter, the work frames euthanasia as a broader question about the value of life, the ethics of care, and the social consequences of normalizing assisted death.
