Book Description

ISBN-10: 0802863396 | ISBN-13: 978-0802863393 | Publication Date: November 10, 2009 | Edition: 1

Living Well and Dying Faithfully explores how Christian practices — 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 offering two complementary modes of care.
