The release of the second update of my book Forced Exit (originally published in 1997 and updated in 2003))has been delayed due to the publisher, Encounter Books, moving from San Francisco to New York. The new edition will be a paper back and readers of the original will find it somewhat streamlined than previous releases. However, it will include a discussion of the Terri Schiavo case, the movie Million Dollar Baby, the continued fall of the Netherlands off of a vertical moral cliff, and medical futility, among other continuing controversies.

The book has been given a new subtitle to reflect the current trends. Instead of “Forced Exit: The Slippery Slope From Euthanasia to Legalized Murder,” it will now be, “Forced Exit: Euthanasia, Assisted Suicide, and the New ‘Duty to Die.’”

More as the release date approaches.
