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.
