Autor/Autorin: Altheide Duane
Born in 1944, Duane Altheide has a B.A. in philosophy (1970) from the University of Southern Colorado and a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Innsbruck. From 1980 to 2013 he worked as a counselor. Now retired, he spends his time reading and on nature walks. "Godless" was published in 2017; "The Death of Atheism" in 2018.
All of us must die; we can do it the hard way or the easy way. Seneca's ancient wisdom from 2000 years ago, augmented by 21st-century-theoretical physics, creates a most convincing version of death and eternity. Most people have a false view of death, that death is in the distant future; then when death suddenly appears, they are terrified. This book shows how to prepare for death, practice death, and rehearse for death. This guide to the end of life shows that death can be seen as a friend and, thus, how to die the easy way. And ultimately, life is more enjoyable.
