Unnatural Death (with Richard Weikart)
What can we learn from the history of euthanasia? What was the view of suicide and euthanasia in the ancient world of the Bible? How did the early church introduce a new ethic of life into that context? How did the modern euthanasia movement begin and what was the rationale for permitting it? How did the Nazi experience of euthanasia affect the movement? How has it regained traction today? We’ll answer these questions and more with our good friend and eminent historian, Dr. Richard Weikart, around his new book, Unnatural Death: Medicine’s Descent from Healing to Killing.
Dr. Richard Weikart is Emeritus Professor of History at California State University, Stanislaus. He is Senior Fellow at the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute.
