Barbara Huttmann

Biographical

This "Dealing with Pain Bulletin Board" posting by Huttmann herself has a bit of biographical information about the author. Would you feel comfortable using it on an exam or paper about Huttmann? Explain.

Bibliographical

An interesting way to see the scope of Huttmann's work is to browse through the list of her citations at the Library of Congress. What did you find there that you didn't know before your visit?

Code Blue: A Nurse's True Life Story (1982) is the name of one of the books you might have come across above. This page has a bit more information about it.

Cultural

"Compassion or Murder?" is the name of a "webquest" that guides you to make your own decisions about a series of cases: it "mercy-killing" or just "plain murder"?

Would you like to write a paper about the euthanasia, but aren't sure how to narrow such a topic? Take a look at this directory from Yahoo.com on the subject.

This page on the topic has links to plenty of resources about how the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on the Constitutionality of doctor-assisted suicide in the U.S.

If you've decided to do research on some part of the life of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the International Task Force on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide has put together this collection of links that will get you started.
