Boudewijn Chabot MD PhD (1941) is a Dutch psychiatrist. Long before the Dutch euthanasia law of 2002, he assisted in the self-chosen death of a woman who had no physical illness. The Dutch Supreme Court passed judgement in 1994: “guilty without punisment”. Since then Chabot has de-voted his professional life to non-doctor assisted dying that is self-chosen and dignified. His book Taking Control of your Death by Stopping Eating and Drinking is based on his nationwide research and has been published in Social Science and Medicine.
