A book for people who believe any and everything they read.
His persecution of Clay Shaw caused the New Orleans newspapers to call for his resignation after Shaw was found not guilty after a mere 40 minutes or so. Google "Jim Garrison" to read all about his nutty ways. A better book by someone who attended the trial is "American Grotesque", or maybe "False Witness". Even JFK-assassination nuts think Garrison hurt their cause with his crazy theories (which changed weekly) and this false prosecution.

Derek H. founded the RTD (right to die) movement in the US with his Hemlock Society. Though that organization has morphed to a new name and a different (stated) purpose, he remains the most articulate spokesperson--and beside Kervorkian---the best known. Derek lays out the legal and ethical reasons for a right-to-die in the US. In light of recent arrest of 4 people from the "Final Exit Network", this stands as a testiment to the fact that the fight is not over for end-of-life choices in this country and around the world.
