How to Disappear Completely and Never Be Found is a book by Doug Richmond, originally released in 1985, which is a how-to guide on starting a new identity. It has the subtitle "Planning a disappearance, arranging for new identification, finding work, establishing credit, pseudocide (creating the impression you're dead), and more."
The book recommends a method of disappearing by assuming the identity of a dead person with similar vital statistics and age, and also includes a section on avoiding paper trails which, due to the age of the book, may no longer be relevant or useful.
The song by Radiohead, on their album Kid A, is named "How To Disappear Completely (And Never Be Found)" and is allegedly about Thom Yorke coping with his depression and then the newly acquired pressures of fame.
