In Liberalism's Troubled Search for Equality, Robert P. Jones presents a penetrating examination of physician-assisted suicide that exposes unresolved tensions deep within liberal political theory. Jones asks why egalitarian liberal philosophers-most notably, Ronald Dworkin and John Rawls-support legalized physician-assisted suicide in direct opposition to groups of disadvantaged citizens they theoretically champion.
