      With a foreword by Paul Kalanithi, bestselling author of When Breath Becomes Air.


      There are many books intended to help people deal with the trauma of bereavement, but few which explore the reality of death itself. Sherwin B.

The result is a unique and compelling book, addressing the one final fact that all of us must confront.

      ''I don''t know of any writer or scientist who has shown us the face of death as clearly, honestly and compassionately as Sherwin Nuland does here'' James Gleick, author of Chaos
