It fills a need., 2008-05-13
This is the only book of its kind that I've read that is so thoroughly researched. It's a pretty comprehensive study of the various ways there are to end one's life. And each method is rated in many categories including effectiveness, ease of obtaining the required materials, painlessness, etc. Near the end of the book there is a good description of how to obtain the best drug (in Mexico) and includes very helpful pictures of the products. I can seriously see cutting the pictures out and showing them to a clerk in Mexico who might otherwise not be able to figure out what I was looking for (because of language difficulties). However, you pay a stiff price to get this information in paperback form ($35.),there is a lot of scientific "padding" to fill out the pages and that is why I gave it four stars instead of five. However, it is the only game in town at this time as far as I know so I'm glad that I have it in my library in spite of the high cost.

straight to the point, 2008-04-30
I am only in my 30's and not ready to leave this place just yet(if I can help it). Knowing that I have this book is such peace of mind for me and my boyfriend because should anything happen I want to control MY outcome. The book gives you alternatives on how to end it and gives you the information you need to be able to make sure you don't make mistakes. This is much better than trying something and have it go horribly wrong.
I REALLY THINK EUTHANASIA SHOULD BE LEGAL.

Essential Reading for those who want control at end of life, 2008-03-15
This book is currently banned in Australia and New Zealand. It has not been in the past and, hopefully, it will resume availability status in the not too distant future. One should be able to determine in this advanced historical part of history, particularly at mature age, to be able to buy and read whatever is relevant to them. Censorship goes too far in this instance. Ignorance is not necessarily bliss! For those that seek answers, this may answer some very important questions for them.
