Customer Reviews

TO READ THIS BOOK WAS TO RETURN TO HER WORKSHOP

Recently I was asked to do a presentation on Elisabeth Kubler-Ross for an adult education class. As Elisabeth was my friend and mentor after I attended her 1985 workshop, and I was her contact person for Ontario, Canada, it gave me great pleasure to review her work and insights again through a book she had given me personally in 1996, after her retirement. I have read all her books, but found this one beautifully encapsulating what she gave her workshop participants. It's a compilation of her talks in many venues, and her personality and sense of humor come across strongly. It's a quick read, but once you open its pages, it's hard to put down. And after reading it, her timeless teachings of unconditional love and looking after one's "unfinished business," remain to prod the reader. Thanks, Elisabeth, for taking me back to a turning point in my own life story.

Death Is Of Vital Importance; On Life, Death and Life after

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross's compilation of talks is just stunning in its simplicity. Since the '70's I have practiced, studied, looked into spirituality and healing. She has just covered all major points on how to live with yourself and others for maximum life experience while taking you on an intimate journey of her own life's unfolding. My heart is deeply touched and this gives me even more hope for a full life lived in the present moment. It is especially pleasing to me to hear this from a medical doctor. She and Deepok Chopra are such a gift to the masses.

Helping with the Death Process

This book helped me to reaize what was happening to my loved one when he died.I wanted to find another Kubler-Ross book but this was the only one available. This book is a collection of lectures that she gave on tour.Even tho my loved one was an adult, the stories of how children viewed death helped me to understand that usually, a person knows when they are dying and find ways to prepare themselves for it. I could relate it to things that had happened in my loved one's life. I have shared this book with others. We felt a great sense of peace and comfort from learning how death affects the young and the old. Especially interesting was the comforting thought of the process of death--what happens at the time death occurs. Also the hope of an afterlife.I recommend this book to anyone facing the death of a loved one.
