Description

The theme of this collection of essays is the perception and experience of death and dying in America in the early 21st century. The authors touch on the most salient current issues surrounding these matters and move the discourse forward into the second decade of this century. The essays are based on papers presented at an interdisciplinary conference, "The Pulse of Death Now", at Columbia University in March 2008.
