A 'death with dignity', the darkened room, and a few murmured farewells? Or in the lights' flashing, siren wailing, chest-pumping maelstrom of the back of an ambulance hurtling towards an ER? This book examines the hi-tech death of the twenty-first century as enacted in our hospitals and as portrayed on our TV screens.
How do we picture ourselves dying? A ''death with dignity'', the darkened room, and a few murmured farewells? Or in the lights'' flashing, siren wailing, chest-pumping maelstrom of the back of an ambulance hurtling towards an ER? Over the last decade, the two most robust vehicles of popular culture: film and television, have opted for the latter scenario. This book examines the hi-tech death of the twenty-first century as enacted in our hospitals and as portrayed on our TV screens.
