Publisher Description: Studs Terkel explores the ultimate human experience, that of death and the possibility of life afterward. Death is the one experience we all share but cannot know. In this book, a wide range of people address that final experience and its impact on the present in which we live. As well as the elderly and sick, Terkel uses his talent to draw on the experiences of those who work closely with the dying - paramedics, police, firefighters, doctors and the recently bereaved. |
