«El hombre y el médico ante la muerte» is the essay by Marcos Gómez Sancho, published by Arán Ediciones in paperback (228 pages, in Spanish).
For centuries, death was experienced the same way; in one generation, medicalisation changed everything. Many incurable patients end their days in hospitals despite wishing to die at home. The author analyses society's denial of death, therapeutic obstinacy and the difficulties healthcare workers face in accompanying the dying.
