The Western Book of Death

"

As a doctor and spiritual teacher, Adriana Balthazar MD; PhD has seen too many people afraid of death. Treating death and mourning as a taboo subjects hurts both the dying and their loved ones.

"In The Western Book of Death," Balthazar seeks to illuminate the misunderstandings that have poisoned us. With open communication and a new perspective, we will become prepared, both for our own death and those around us. Instead of seeing death as an end we will truly see it for what it is - only one part of a long and continuing journey.

Both spiritually rich and comfortingly practical, "The Western Book of Death" serves as a valuable guidebook for every stage of life.
