Death by Herbert Fingarette
This work faces up to the reality of death and demolishes some populart errors in our thinking about death. It examines the metaphors which can mislead us: death as parting; death as sleep; immortality as the denial of death; and selflessness as a kind of consolation.
Herbert Fingarette, a distinguished professor at the University of California, has been a consultant on alcoholism and addiction to the World Health Organization, and a Fellow of the Stanford Center for Advanced Studies in the Behavioral Sciences. His work has had a significant influence on the U.S. Supreme Court, state supreme courts, and current national policy makers on substance abuse.
