Killing Me Softlyis a radical and compelling examination of the current euthanasia debate. Frustrated by continuing controversy and political inaction in this area, prominent activists Philip Nitschke and Fiona Stewart present a powerful argument in favour of our right to die as we choose. Their concerns include the way in which the medical profession has assumed 'ownership' of death, and the fact that existing laws restrict our end-of-life choices. They offer a future where a 'Peaceful Pill' could revolutionise euthanasia just as the contraceptive pill transformed birth control a generation ago. This book is recommended reading, not just for those who already believe we have the right to choose a dignified death but also for anyone still to be persuaded . . .

Going to Switzerland: Planning your Final Exit is the first book of its kind to document how the Swiss voluntary assisted dying (VAD) / Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) process applies to foreigners. Since 1937, assisted suicide has been legal in Switzerland. Foreigners can fly in and get help to die. Going to Switzerland discusses the legal framework that makes this possible, providing a step-by-step guide as to how to prepare for a VAD (voluntary assisted death) in this country. Going to Switzerland describes the application process, the qualification criteria in terms of a mental health diagnosis, the different methods of death used by different clinics, & the variation in acceptance policies between clinics. The book also details what to expect before, during and after a VAD in terms of cremation, death certificates and costs.
