This book will change your life and your perception of death. I cannot recommend this book enough. We Americans need to change the way we think about death. Living 2 months longer but being brain-dead and bedbound is not a quality life.

I do cancer surgeries for a living. Multiple family members who have had cancer. This book is very insightful and a great read.

A clear and insightful surgeon-writer who always delivers thoughtful stories and questions.
He's influenced medicine like almost no one else in the last 10 years, it seems, and for the better, thankfully.
I added audible narration for $7.49.
