Too Young to Die

One would imagine that the young would have every reason to want to live. Yet, under certain circumstances, they have felt that they had no choice but to end their lives. When that happens, the sense of shock, horror and disbelief is unimaginable. This book investigates the factors that contribute to young suicides in Asia. The author sheds light on this phenomenon by examining the coroners' suicide case-files and case-files of patients treated in his psychiatric clinic as well as poignant letters written by young suicides.
