A book that makes you think about and appreciate life., 11 Feb 1998
By A Customer
I just turned 25, and have been a fan of Kubler-Ross...I was so affected by this book. I have told everyone that I know to read it, although, unfortunately, people my age don't think they should be thinking of dying yet. Little do they know that by learning about dying, we learn how to live.

Whew! A real roller coaster ride, 6 Feb 1998
By A Customer
Those of us who gained immensely from Kubler-Ross' first book "On death and dying" will be interested to read her final book. And what a dichotomy from the first! Instead of a carefully reasoned, almost scientific treatise on the subject of life and death, Kubler-Ross throws us onto the roller coaster that has been her life. Unsatisfactory relationships, a definite superiority complex (Kubler-Ross is always right) and a profound belief that her life has eveolved the way it has in order for her to learn the lessons she needs to - and yet mysterious and thought-provoking. The way in which she refers to her "spooks" (her term), the spirit guides which live with her each day, and her encounters with out of body experiences leave us more grounded souls with a high degree of scepticism. And yet ... Read this book and make up your mind for yourself.

Truly Enlightening, 11 Sep 1997
By A Customer
I have spent the last year coming to terms with the terminal illness and recent death of a family member. This book was enlightening for me. It helped me deal with the emotions and anger I had bottled up inside. It also gave me great insight into my loved one's feelings during the dying process. I only wish I had read the book prior to their death. It was comforting to read much of what the author said.
