Inhalt: |
An entertaining and philosophical book about death and dying . . .
An editor who over eight decades has experienced a unique assortment of physical and intellectual confrontations with death writes about them: in rock climbing, skiing, shipwreck, bear attack, murder, suicide, in blind faith, hospice, as a topic in discussion groups, grieving, obituary writing, memorial services, the afterlife, and choices in confronting life's end.
