Freedom to Die - Derek Humphry - Paperback

Derek Humphry, author of the number one New York Times bestseller, Final Exit (1991), has joined forces with attorney Mary Clement to write Freedom to Die. More than a chronology of the movement, this book explores the inner motivations of an entire society, and traces the movement from Karen Quinlan, to the individual on the deathbed, to the resistance of the government, the medical profession, and religious groups.While the American public through polls has demonstrated that it wants the right to choose, the issue has become increasingly incendiary. Intelligent and highly controversial, this book, with its deep ethical framework, does for the right-to-die movement what And the Band Played On did for AIDS.Humphry, Derek is the author of 'Freedom to Die - Derek Humphry - Paperback' with ISBN 9780312253899 and ISBN 0312253893.
