Give your audience the opportunity to benefit from a doctor who has changed the way people think about end-of-life issues in America. He practiced medicine in Oregon soon after it became the first and only state to legalize physician-assisted suicide when end-of-life care debates were confronting the healthcare community unlike any time in American history. In The Other Face of Murder, Dr. Gil Porat has achieved his objective to entertain readers with humor while enlightening them about riveting bioethical issues.

 Written as fiction, he took a highly controversial subject and handled it with dignity and humor. When his lead character’s views about dying are challenged as a result of a friend dying in his home, the outcome also forces the reader to reflect on his/her own life and relationships in a totally different way.
