I was impressed by the author's account of the Cruzan case -- he was the family lawyer who "lost" in front of the Supreme Court but not quite -- and was led to purchase this broader study of the "right to die." As he notes in the conclusion, this 200 or so page work does not cover everything, but it does a very good job, in down to earth prose, to cover most of the bases. And, do so in a balanced fashion that states his views while not trying to provide all the answers. He starts with an extended look at the tragic Schiavo case.
William Colby has provided a volume of information needed by people dying and by those caring for them. There are many choices for both and this book provides them. Read in your leisure or when you need to make difficult decisions. It will help you.
It was a good book for its need, and though it is a bit dry, it isnt nearly as bad as I had expected.
Between author William H. Colby's role as the attorney for the family of Nancy Cruzan - who fought for the removal of her feeding tube, when she was in a Persistent Vegetative State 15 years before the Schiavo case dominated national discourse - and "Unplugged"'s subtitle, "Reclaiming our Right to Die in America", you might expect unsubtle advocacy. Colby doesn't give it, however; and although he talks about being impartial at excessive length, he does stick to the facts when the 3 individual cases (Karen Ann Quinlan, Nancy Cruzan, and Terri Schiavo) on the right-to-die issue he discusses are brought up.The most valuable part of the book was the grounding Colby gives in the evolution of Medical Technology and the role this has played in the debate and how it's arisen; it's striking how new these issues are and how much they are dependent on technology. PVS patients weren't sustainable at all in the past - the term wasn't even coined until 1972 - and the different between the extensive surgery for a feeding tube for Quinlan and Cruzan, and the simple procedure for Schiavo, is vast; it may get even simpler tomorrow. Given that debates have turned on how extreme the measures taken are - and how hopeless a situation is - the moral debates are going to continually change as technology develops, a situation Colby illustrates well.He also shows the potential pitfalls in living wills and the legal mess that still surrounds this issue; his solution is a power of attorney form and discussion with your loved ones. Giving them the power to make decisions and extensive knowledge of what you wanted is a good; a united family with clear knowledge of your desires is unlikely to have trouble carrying them out. Even if the point in the book is repeated ad nauseum.The book is repetitive, though this is not always his fault - he provides a necessary accounting of the Schiavo case, which can't avoid covering the endless repetitive and futile appeals. All in all, "Unplugged" covers a lot of useful ground that was missed in the shouting atmosphere surrounding the Schiavo case; brief tie-ins of related issues (such as assisted suicide) add to the use of the book not as taking another side in the debate but giving information you can use decided where you stand and what you should do about it.
William H. ColbyUnplugged:Reclaiming Our Right to Die in America(New York: American Management Association: [...], 2006) 272 pages(ISBN: 978-0-8144-0882-7; hardcover)(Library of Congress call number: RC726.C637 2006) William Colby is the attorney who represented the Cruzan familyin the famous case of Nancy Cruzan, who was finally allowed to die in 1990.This book also deals with other right-to-die cases.Terri Schiavo is given three chapters at the beginning of the book.Medical technology is now able to keep bodies 'alive'for many years after the death of the person.And the law has been slow to respond to these new medical situations. Some of the other issues explored:definitions of death, Advance Directives, Do Not Resuscitate orders,deciding medical care for patients who have lost the capacity to decide for themselves,the power of doctors to follow their own standard medical procedures,artificial nutrition and hydration,opposition to the right-to-die, including the worries of disabled people,physician assistance in dying, & hospice care. Colby has written a lucid and informative bookexploring many issues surrounding the right-to-die.He often explores deep into the historical background of current controversies.If you would like to read similar books, search the Internet for:"Books on the Right-to-Die".James Leonard Park, advocate of the right-to-die with careful safeguards.
Of all the books written about the right-to-die in our country this is by far one of the best. Written by the lawyer for Nancy Cruzan, it is a thoughtful, unbiased, and informative book that addresses all the issues surrounding the right-to-die. It looks at both sides of the issues and doesn't take sides (unlike the recent books written by the Schindler and Shiavo families and others surrounding the Terri Schiavo case). It enables the reader to come to their own conclusions on the issue without being preachy. A must read for everyone.......if I could give 6 stars I would!
If you have read William Colby's book Nancy Cruzan, The Long Goodbye, you will find his latest book equally informative. Mr. Colby provides an excellent medical history that has brought us to our current debate about killing vs. allowing individuals to die. He shares recent cases and offers insight to both sides of the issue. This book should be read by anyone who has been faced with making end-of-life care decisions and by all who want to ensure that their end-of-life care is clearly understood.
"Unplugged" is superbly written and thoroughly researched. Colby provides an unbiased perspective on complex legal, medical, and ethical issues in terms easily understood by both the lay person and professional. This book is invaluable for anyone who cares about how they or their loved ones experience life - and death.
