**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
