Book Reviews of Prescription: Medicide: The Goodness of Planned Death
Book Review: Eye Opener
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is not only an eye opener but it also expresses Kevorkian frustration with the governments control over medicine. It's kind of nice to see that old people have issues they like to fight for as well. At one point talks of his quest to encourage the government to allow peoplle on death row to donate their bodies to science but the government. Kevorkian is a good man and it saddens me to think what the media has done to him.
Summary of Prescription: Medicide: The Goodness of Planned Death
Dr. Kevorkian has helped more than a dozen terminally-ill people kill themselves. As a result, physician-assisted suicide has once again become a red-hot debate, with the inventor of the "suicide machine" at the center. Now the famed doctor talks about why he continues his struggle.Suicide Books
