In light of the new § 217 StGB, this book deals with the highly relevant themes of assisted suicide and professionalized assisted suicide (e.g. medically assisted suicide, euthanasia societies). It places the old status of the law in context and offers a standard of comparison for evaluating the new regulations. A presentation of the underlying legal philosophy and an analysis of the most important details for legal practice complete the work.
