Product Description

Living Well and Dying Faithfully explores ways in which Christian practices - the practice of love, prayer, lament, compassion, and so on - can contribute to the process of dying well. Working on the premise that one dies the way one lives, the book is unique in its constructive dialogue between theology and medicine as two complementary modes of healing.
