This series supports the study of issues and events of importance to the Australia community by looking at several issues that are newsworthy on both a local and global scale. What is the impact of these issues on the everyday life of Australians? What are the differing viewpoints and debates surrounding these issues? Features of each book include profiles of significant people and organisations, quotations, timelines, flow charts and tables. Suitable for 12-16 year olds.Euthanasia is an issue that affects the developing world. Throughout the developing world, people are living longer than ever before, mainly due to improvements in medicine and healthcare. With this longer lifespan, new social issues arise. Read about one of these new issues - euthanasia, which is killing a dying person to end his or her suffering. Discover that different forms euthanasia can take, where it is allowed, and the situation in Australia.
