Book Review-Final Exit: the Practicalities of Self-Deliverance and Assisted Suicide for the Dying, by D Humphry

Litman’s criticisms of this book, “focus entirely on his encouragement of suicide for persons who are not dying, for example when it involves the handicapped rather than the terminally ill”. However, he says that before Humphry is accused of causing more suicides among the non-terminally ill, the evidence should be checked to be sure that this is indeed true.
