This book studies the phenomenon of altruistic suicide which was a form of political protest. The authors investigate the self-immolation of German pastor Oskar Brüsewitz and compare it with other politically motivated suicides. They analyse cases of self-immolations in Vietnam, the USA, India, Tibet, China, Iran, and Middle-Eastern Europe.
