The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia is a 2006 book by Neil Gorsuch.[1] The book presents legal and moral arguments against euthanasia and assisted suicide, advocating for the retention of bans on the practices.[2] It explores case histories from jurisdictions that have legalized the practice, including Oregon and the Netherlands.[3] The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia grew out of Gorsuch's doctoral dissertation. While attending Oxford University, he studied legal and ethical issues related to assisted suicide and euthanasia under John Finnis, an Australian legal scholar opposed to assisted suicide.[4][5]
