Death on demand : Jack Kevorkian and the right-to-die movement / by DeCesare, Michael,1975-;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: From Janet Adkins to Brittany Maynard -- "A self-imposed mission": four decades of lone activism -- "They'll be after me for this": lighting a movement's fuse -- "A serial mercy killer on our hands": the emergence of Dr. Death -- "We're some friends of Dr. Kevorkian's": pushing for the right to die -- "A game of cat and mouse": Kevorkian on trial -- "I prefer jail to bail": forcing a showdown -- "Well, sir, consider yourself stopped": a leader's fall and a movement's decline -- Conclusion: death with dignity: after Kevorkian."Death on Demand explores the polarizing role of Jack Kevorkian - "Dr. Death" - as the most visible leader of the right-to-die movement. From a feature on the cover of Time magazine to interviews on shows like 60 Minutes, Kevorkian was a high-profile figure in the right-to-die movement, capturing constant media attention as he helped more than one hundred people kill themselves. / The book opens with the death of Janet Adkins in 1990 - Kevorkian's first assisted suicide - then travels back to Kevorkian's medical school days and follows his nearly four decades as a lone activist. Death on Demand draws on Kevorkian's interviews and published work as well as newspaper and magazine articles to describe the doctor's publicity stunts, criminal trials, years in prison, and activities after he was paroled. Author Michael DeCesare examines Kevorkian's actions in the context of the right-to-die movement to understand his crucial role in bringing the controversial practice of assisted suicide into the public conversation." -- Back cover.

The suicide machine /
Foreword -- From the publisher -- Introduction -- Part 1: 47 Lives -- Death express: Summer of '96 -- Beginning: June 1990-December 1992 -- Suicide streak: January 1993-May 1995 -- For some, it was a party: June 1995-May 1996 -- Kevorkian keeps on: August 1996-February 1997 -- Death is not final: the aftermath -- Part 2: Issues -- He breaks his own rules -- Failure of medicine -- Control at the end -- On the cheap -- Blunt and shy -- Part 3: People -- Biographies in brief of those who died -- Kevorkian goes public -- Singular doctor -- Fieger: beyond bluster -- Ally: Dr Reding -- Different Dr Death -- Part 4: Assisted Suicide Debate -- Black reluctance -- How patients choose -- New attitudes about dying -- Starving as a legal option -- Dr Death, 1915 -- Chronology -- Part 5: Editorial -- Better way awaits.From the Back Cover: Perhaps only Bill Clinton has greater name recognition. But of the millions who know Jack Kevorkian's name, only a handful have understood how Dr. Death works-until now. In a marathon reporting effort that spanned more than a half a year and hundreds of interviews, the staff of the Detroit Free Press took readers inside the lives and the issues. The result-this authoritative account of Kevorkian's crusade as related by those who witnessed it, death by death-is a sometimes poignant, sometimes deeply disturbing journey to the center of medicine's profound dilemma.

A dignified ending : taking control over how we die / by Cohen, Lewis M.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The Admiral and His Wife -- The Geriatric Romeo and Juliet -- It's Not Like She's Suffering -- Sigmund Freud's Cancer -- You Don't Want Custer -- How Life Turned Out -- Putting the 'Mensch' in Dementia -- You Won't Let Me Suffer Unnecessarily -- My Way - Nothing but Torture -- Fate Worse Than Death? -- Goodbye, My Love -- Dr. Death - Hemlock -- A Well-Worn Sweater -- Bring Out Yer Dead -- The Federation -- Caring Friends -- The Metamorphosis of Caring Friends -- The New Dr. Death -- The Final Two Cases -- Four Boxes of Chocolate -- On Her Own Terms -- My Golden Summer -- Don't Sugarcoat It -- Enough is Enough -- What She Wanted -- Cowboys, Mormons, and Sundance -- We Have Choices -- Last Thoughts."Each year, more than one million people and their loved-ones arrive at a decision to cease attempts at curative medical treatments and shift to hospice care, while one-in-five Americans now live in in geographical regions that have established lawful protocols allowing medical aid in dying--also known as assisted suicide. In this powerful new work, Lew Cohen, a psychiatrist and palliative medicine researcher, reveals a self-determination movement that empowers people to shape the timing and circumstances of their deaths, decriminalizes laws threatening those who help them, and passes assisted dying legislature. He offers a vivid tapestry woven from the candid, inspirational, and graphic stories of individuals who sought to choreograph how they would die. There is nothing simple about these decisions, and A Dignified Ending tackles the intricacies of timing, the presence of dementia and other dire but not terminal conditions, the legal risks, as well as the mixed reactions of the disability community. Cohen illuminates the evolution of right-to-die organizations in the United States, and the impact of activists like Jack Kevorkian, Derek Humphrey, Faye Girsh, Cody Curtis, and Brittany Maynard." -- Publisher's description

Additionally, the book examines how members of our society typically die has changed in the past 150 years and how the practice of medicine has evolved over that time; explains why the right to die is strongly opposed by many religious groups as well as members of the medical profession; considers the "slippery slope" argument against doctor-assisted suicide; and identifies the reasons that the disabled, the poor, the elderly and infirm, and some members of ethnic, racial, and religious minority groups typically fear physician-assisted death."--Publisher's website.
