Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Used/Mystics and Philosophy. Book is in good condition, with a few bends to some pages, but otherwise clean pages free of marks and tears. Pages are yellowed due to age. Synopsis from Google Books: This is a comprehensive account of the experience of dying, the fight, on all fronts, against it, the accommodation to it; the attempt to transcend it - from the points of view of those who are dying as well as those who survive them Today medical technology keeps dying people alive longer than ever before But the quality of that life - and the cost of prolonging it - is increasingly open to question. In this provocative book, David Dempsey examines the new science of thanatology - the approach to dying and death that seeks to make the last stages of life as rewarding and meaningful as youth and middle age Sensitive to the emotional and psychological needs of the dying and their families and friends Dempsey is also interested in the immediate decisions that surround this experience to die in a hospital or at home, hooked up to machines, sedated, tripping, unconscious, or "naturally"* in ignorance or knowledge of death's imminence, with or without the option of euthanasia. The author realizes that, for the survivor, the experience of death does not end with the final heartbeat or brainwave. He examines the lost art of grieving and the illness that comes from not knowing how to mourn; the evidence of survival after death, and the efforts of psychologists and scientists to communicate with the dead. Finally, Dempsey discusses the pioneering work being done by some doctors and hospitals in making death more natural and dignified A disturbing book, The Way We Die is also deeply inspiring in showing us that deal need not be the nightmare that it unfortunately is for most today. David Dempsey is a member of the professional advisory board of the Foundation of Thanatology. The author of several previous books, he also contributes frequently to The New York Times Magazine, Harper's, The Atlantic. The New Yorker, Playboy, and others.
