Review:This book is a classic. As foundation for understanding how loss operates in our lives from our earliest days, it is well-written, soundly-researched, and decidedly worth the read. Viorst asserts that loss is central to, and pervasive in, everyone's life. She divides our losses into four major categories: 1) the losses of childhood and the becoming of a separate self; 2) the losses of accepting the limitations of our power and potential including the forbidden and the impossible; 3) the losse...

Review:For six years as a volunteer at Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco, I was blessed to have Frank Ostaseski as my teacher. He and the hospice residents we served helped me better understand death, dying, and ... living more fully. Those teachings continue to inform my life.

Now, Frank has captured the wisdom of a lifetime of service in a new book that will enlighten all who want to open their hearts and live life in a more loving and heart-full way. Read more

Review:I've been reading spiritual books since my teenage years. I totally enjoyed, learned and understood Crystal McVea's book since I also have had a "voice" help me along the way growing up. I certainly accept and learned much from her book and will enjoyed re-reading it again. Thank you Crystal.

Review:This is a very helpful book about understanding some of the men we love - including brothers and fathers. It is very well written and engaging and as a woman I learned a lot - hopefully to be helpful to others. Read more

Review:This story is heartbreakingly beautiful. It is told in the most honest and open manner. Rory opens his heart and soul to us glossing over nothing. One can not read this story and not feel his pain and share in their triumph and their tragedy. Joey + Rory's story is not finished, this is only the end of the beginning. Their faith in God and their love and commitment to one and other is moving and truly inspirational. This is not lighthearted reading but it will touch your heart and possibly chan... Read more

Review:Taylor is HEARTLESS to all the Armstrong children, not to mention her own daughter, Kennedy!! This book being written and published so soon and the horrible content about Russell is only going to HAUNT THESE KIDS for the rest of their lives. THIS BOOK IS A FORM OF EMOTIONAL ABUSE TO ALL TAYLOR'S VICTIMS! (children). And how is she helping DV victims?? She gives no guidance or steps to actually benefit battered women. And what if she abused Russell like many believe. Her UNSTABLE, AGGRESIVE BEH... Read more

Review:This book was recommended to me after the sudden death of my husband. It addresses many of the thoughts and feelings I had and made me feel like I wasn't the only one. It addresses various types of untimely death, so I would recommend it to anyone who has lost a loved one to any type of unexpected 0death. Read more

Review:I do not believe one book will answer the questions of dying or what happens to us after we die. But, I must confess, Thich Nhat Hanh has given me something to ponder. I would recommend reading this book if you sincerely want to know more about facing death. Read more

Review:I have begun reading the literature of death and dying to prepare myself for the death of a loved one. All my life I have struggled with the thought of losing her, and now it appears that time may be coming quickly. I enjoyed most of this book, especially the talk of the Stages, but I found some of the use of the royal "We" that EKR uses to be off-putting. But, I'm sure that was the way to write at the time. The book has been a good introduction to the topic, and will help me as I continue learn... Read more
