To help pass the time while stuck at home, Exit has bundled some of our best reads.
|
During Covid, Exit offers $20 discount when Killing Me Softly & Damned If I Do are purchased together.
|
Killing Me Softly (Penguin) - authored by Philip Nitschke and Fiona Stewart, Killing Me Softly provides the framework within which to understand why a good death is a human right for all rational adults, rather than a medical privilege reserved only for the very sick. To be aware of this background is to better understand today's global debate with all its intricacies and intrigue.
|
Damned If I Do 'the autobiography' (Melbourne University Press) - written with the late Peter Corris, Damned If I Do examines Philip Nitschke's journey thus far: from boyhood in the South Australian bush to student activism and a hotbed of social and political issues that have included Aboriginal land rights and nuclear disarmament and, finally, assisted suicide.
|
Never one to shirk controversy, Philip’s belief that all rational adults should have the means to end their lives peacefully and reliably has seen him challenge the medical and political establishment ... and it's not over yet!
