Forced Exit: Euthanasia, Assisted Suicide and the New Duty of Die

by Wesley J. Smith

Forced Exit: Euthanasia, Assisted Suicide and the New Duty of Die Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Exposing the false premise of the euthanasia movement to make a compelling case against assisted suicide, Forced Exit reveals the horrors of the Netherlands, where 8.5 percent of all deaths are attributed to assisted suicide and where Dutch doctors have rapidly moved from euthanizing the terminally ill to killing infants with birth defects.

Book News Annotation:

With the success of his 2002 Culture of Death, Smith revives an earlier volume (originally published in 1997) opposing deliberate self-chosen and medically-assisted death. His topics include death fundamentalism, creating a caste of disposable people, inventing the right to die, euthanasia as an enemy of the disabled, and the choice between hemlock and hospice.
