The book is divided into two parts. The first half outlines a wide range of suicide-related topics: history of suicide; sociological, biological, and psychiatric views; why people kill themselves; intervention in suicide; assisted suicide in terminal illness; "living wills" and other advance directives; the practice of euthanasia in the Netherlands and in the US. The second half is an examination of how people kill themselves: This section describes, in sometimes-gory detail: (1) methods people use to commit suicide; (2) the medical consequences of suicide attempts; (3) how to carry out a safe suicidal gesture; (4) how to commit suicide as non-traumatically as possible. You may find parts of it disturbing. But the consequences of ignorance are more disturbing: botched suicides, accidental deaths and maimed survivors, slow and painful deaths. Every 18 minutes someone in the United States kills himself. A few are younger than ten years old; others over ninety. Between seven-and-a-half and sixteen percent take more than a day to die. An estimated 300,000 to 600,000 survive suicide attempts, but suffer varying degrees of injury. Nineteen thousand are permanently disabled each year. Estimates vary, but only about one in ten or twenty suicide attempts is fatal. Given the easy availability of highly lethal methods, it seems that most suicide attempters don't want to die. Yet some people who didn't intend to die do kill themselves.
