Parental Guidance Suggested

“No decent human being would allow an animal to suffer without putting it out of its misery. It is only to human beings that human beings are so cruel as to allow them to live on in pain, in hopelessness, in living death, without moving a muscle to help them. It is against such attitudes that this book fights." --Isaac Asimov (author)

”Nobody else could have done this book. It's the first of its kind in America. People in both the present and future will be in Derek Humphry's debt." --Dr. Joseph P. Fletcher (theologian)

”Some people want to eke out every second of lift—no matter how grim—and that is their right. But others do not. And that should be their right. Until it is, until there is a law which would allow physicians to help people who want a final exit, here is Derek Humphry's book, fittingly named, to guide them." --Betty Rollin (author, Last Wish)

Final Exit is intended for a mature adult who is suffering from a terminal illness and is considering the option of rational suicide if and when suffering becomes unbearable. It also gives guidance to those who might be supportive of this option.

For the first time in published literature, the ways in which doctors and nurses may need to handle a patient's request for euthanasia are outlined.

The author writes from personal experience and from twelve years as national executive director of the Hemlock Society.
