Bibliography:
Includes bibliographical references.
Summary:
"'He who would teach men to
die
would teach them to live,' writes Montaigne in Essais, and in
How
to
Die
, Ray Robertson takes up the challenge, arguing that the active and intentional consideration of death is essential to our ability to value life. An absorbing excursion through some of Western literature's most compelling works on the subject of death and a self-help
book
for people who hate self-help,
How
to
Die
is an anecdote-driven argument for cultivating a better understanding of death in the belief that, if we do, we'll know more
about
what it means to live meaningfully."--From publisher.
