An extraordinary examination of human mortality demonstrating that by accepting and understanding death, we can find unending richness in our lives. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Peck treats death exactly the way one should, as a normal occurrence that every human being must eventually face. He reminds us that although our culture enforces the idea that death is always an untimely circumstance, a surprise, or an unfortunate accident, it truly is something we all must experience, no matter how much we try to deny it. While I am watching death speed my way, this tape is a great help in evening out the emotional lows. I highly recommend it for anyone you know who is dealing with death at the moment, either as a participant or observer.

I came across this audio tape just by chance months after my father died. Listening to it helped me to get through one of life's most difficult times. Dr. Peck brings the reality of death to the meaning of life - a begining and an end. So make the most of the middle. It's a shame this tape is "out of print".
for the first time death did not scare me.

though one can not rule out the possibility of the fear that people have of "death" but this book definately makes it seem simple. well i would say that after reading it one has a positive approach towards death, the only thing we need to remember is that we should'nt forget what this book teaches for most of the people forget things after a while. its definately an extraordinary reading.
