"Sharp, thoughtful, compassionate, alert. A truly remarkable, sensitive and well-observed engagement with one of the most difficult and timely issues of our age" - Rory Stewart. Assisted dying is a question that reaches into the deepest parts of us, sitting at the intersection of medicine, morality and personal liberty. For decades, debates around legalisation have played out across the world, even as people on both sides have suffered, struggling with impossibly complex choices. In Fight to the Death. , award-winning journalist Paul Brand explores the lives unfolding behind the headlines, collecting true stories from those who stand on both sides of assisted dying: people living with unrelenting pain who long for autonomy in their final days, and those who have lost someone they love to a decision they could not accept. These narratives are not arguments on either side of a political debate, but lives unfolding - a mother facing the slow erosion of her body, a son believing he made a merciful choice. Brand takes us inside the rooms where those decisions are confronted - in the hospitals, kitchens, courtrooms and quiet late-night conversations. Honest and unflinching, Fight to the Death. invites readers to witness, not judge. This is a book about the limits of the human body, the strength of family, and the emotional landscapes no law can ever capture. 'Extraordinarily powerful and timely. searingly honest' - Piers Morgan'Profoundly moving, thought provoking and a must read' - Lorraine Kelly'Incisive and compassionate' - Susanna Reid'Clear-sighted and comprehensive' - Julie Etchingham'Absolutely heart-rending' - Tom Bradby'Essential reading' - Robert Peston'Demonstrates profound humanity' - Liam McArthur MSP.
