    • Science

Max got what he wanted, but it didn’t work out as he’d hoped. In the final episode of our pilot season we ask several guests, was it worth it? What is the value of a few extra months of life, when those months include indignity, suffering and pain? Drs. Daniel Ariely, Steven Pearson and Larry Allen contribute their answers to this very hardest of all hard calls.
