Culture, Suicide, and the Human Condition

Culture, Suicide, and the Human Condition

Synopsis

Suicide is a puzzling phenomenon. Not only is its demarcation problematic but it also eludes simple explanation. The cultures in which suicide mortality is high do not necessarily have much else in common, and neither is a single mental illness such as depression sufficient to lead a person to suicide.
