Bert Keizer knows a thing or two about death. As a physician in a Dutch nursing home for the terminally ill he is often asked by patients to assist them in ending their lives. As the debate on physician-assisted suicide rages in the United States and abroad, Keizer's reflections on this divisive issue are insightful, poignant, and timely. His reportage from the frontlines of death is sure to make you laugh, as well as think. In addition to an excerpt of Dancing with Mr. D, an illuminating interview and a author essay, "On Dying," round out our Bold Type feature. Photo Credit: Roger Fokke. Send us comments
