Medicalization of Death

Modern medicine defines illness and health procedures needed (for example, tonsil removal was fairly routine with children in the 1940s and 1950s because medical science deemed it so) and determines procedures for the dying, which may prolong or shorten life. Not unlike childbirth via convenient-for-the-doctor Caesarean sections, modern medicine somewhat controls when we die and can control premature deaths.
