Life Chronicle--A Death Diary of a Foreign Scholar: A Death Diary of a Foreign Scholar

Author: Peter Norvig

Publication Date: 2003-02-01
Features: The Life Journal, a death diary by a foreign scholar; Crossing the Threshold of Death, a recovery journal by a cancer patient. The former faces death head-on, dying with composure and dignity; the latter fights back tenaciously, achieving a full and more optimistic recovery. In fact, it is precisely when a person is about to bid farewell to the world that there is the most possible opportunity for a very valuable exchange with it. This spiritual exchange at the moment of death separation is almost of a sacred nature.
