Forced Exit: The Slippery Slope from Assisted Suicide to

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Wesley J., PUBLISHER: Spence Publishing Company, Piercing the emotionalism, fear-mongering, and euphemisms of the assisted-suicide movement, Wesley Smith's new book exposes the attempt to strip the sick and disabled of their human dignity. One of the nation's leading writers on euthanasia delivers a badly needed dose of clear thinking and genuine compassion. Through original reporting, exhaustive research, historical analysis, and extensive interviews, Smith makes a compelling case against legalizing assisted suicide. He explores the truly humane and compassionate alternatives that can change a death wish into a desire to live. The first comprehensive response to the assisted-suicide movement, Forced Exit changed the debate when it was originally published eight years ago. Now thoroughly revised and updated to keep pace with the movement's advance, this important book provides chilling evidence of how powerful and dangerous the death culture in America has become.

We should not be made to die or forced to live against our wishes or to satisfy others or to serve some external interests. Everyone has the fundamental human right to their own life and death. Arguing persuasively from the historical record and current evidence, Mr. Quest contends that suicide, once an honorable act, should be returned to the approved status it once enjoyed.

For most of our own century, Europe saw the greatest tide of uprooted humanity, with millions of people torn loose from their homes and forced to flee abroad. The Unwanted presents the first comprehensive picture of the astounding dimension of the refugee problem in twentieth century Europe.
