TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Love and let die JO - Time A1 - Painton, P. A1 - Taylor, E. SP - 62 EP - 68, 70 VL - 135 IS - 12 N2 - When the very technology that can save lives is only prolonging death, how should a patient decide whether to stop treatment--or help death along?

As the private dilemmas multiply, they have become the public province of interest groups, policymakers and the U.S. Supreme Court.
