How We Die by Sherwin B Nuland
NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER * NATIONAL BESTSELLER * The definitive resource on perhaps the single most universal human concern: death.
Even more relevant than when it was first published, this edition addresses contemporary issues in end-of-life care and includes an all-embracing and incisive afterword that examines the state of health care and our relationship with life as it approaches its terminus. How We Die also discusses how we can take control of our own final days and those of our loved ones.
"Nuland's work acknowledges, with unmatched clarity, the harsh realities of how life departs... There is compassion, and often wisdom, in every page." --San Francisco Examiner
