The Peaceful Pill Handbook is the leading practical end of life guidebook for seniors & people who are seriously ill & their friends & family. Former MD, Dr Philip Nitschke with lawyer Dr Fiona Stewart, draw upon the latest scientific research to provide readers with easy to follow practical information on a diverse range of end of life choice strategies. By applying Exit's 'Reliability-Peacefulness' Test, readers can compare various options including: the barbiturates (sources, testing, storage, administration), inert gases such as Nitrogen and Helium, prescription medicines such as morphine & the Swiss services available to foreigners. Finally the book covers the associated issues of advance health directives, testamentary capacity, death certifiicates & autopsies. The Peaceful Pill eHandbook was first published in 2006. The 2016 edition is the eighth update to this controversial, yet hugely informative book.
