Assisted Suicide - Legal, Medicine, Ethical and Social Issues
Many people question whether Fed. funds should pay the costs of physician-assisted suicide. This is an extremely difficult and complex issue, especially with regard to a person suffering from a terminal illness or who has a disability. Witnesses include figures from the religious, medical, ethical and patient communities: Lutheran Church-MO Synod; Nat. Assoc. of People w/AIDS; Amer. Med. Assoc.; Oregon Catholic Conf.; George Wash. Univ. Med. Cntr.; Physicians for Compassionate Care; Greek Orthodox Church; Center for Medical Ethics; Amer. Jewish Comm.; Consort. for Citizens w/Disabil.; Amer. Nurse Assoc., and C. Everett Koop.
Lives on the Line
"The twin cities of Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora, for years straddled an indistinct border," but with the maquiladora industry, a crackdown against undocumented immigrants, and drug smuggling, "neither Nogales will ever be the same."--Cover.

The Future of the Wild
"In The Future of the Wild, conservationist Jonathan S. Adams uses stories to show us how to think big. Only by saving large tracts of land and the wildlife corridors that connect them can we hope to save the widest variety of species in any ecosystem. And only by saving whole ecosystems, including human communities, can we hope to make significant strides in conservation."--BOOK JACKET.

Boundaries Between
Boundaries Between skillfully relates the history of the Southern Paiutes from their first contacts with Europeans through the end of the twentieth century. In an engaging style, Martha C.

By all the ?rules? of history and anthropology, such a small-scale, foraging culture should have disappeared long ago, but the Southern Paiutes survive, and their story unsettles assumptions about the role that social complexity, power, and culture play in the dynamics of human history.
