Neal Nicol, "Between the Dying and the Dead: Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the Assisted Suicide Machine and the Battle to Legalise Euthanasia"
2006 | pages: 288 | ISBN: 1904132723 | PDF | 1,2 mb
To many of those who have known him personally, he is a saint and a saviour. To many of those who only know of him, he is the worst kind of sinner. Millions of people around the world know the name Dr Jack Kevorkian, but few know anything about the man. When his fight to legalise euthanasia was making headlines in the 1990s, the public saw only the macabre 'Dr Death' – the often abrasive, always outspoken proponent of the right of the termi-nally ill to end their suffering on their own terms. But behind that persona lies a complicated man with a compelling story. He was a former child prodigy, the son of Armenian refugees who came to America to escape the Turkish genocide. Starting with nothing, his parents soon found themselves raising a precocious student, a boy his less-gifted teachers dreaded but whom the neighbourhood kids idolised. His early talents ranged from woodwork to linguistics to science experiments in the basement. Later, he became a brilliant pathologist, devoting his life to the unusual pursuit of extracting social benefit from death.
