About the book: 2012 / In 1999, summing up the past century, Time magazine named Dr. Kübler-Ross among one hundred outstanding thinkers of the 20th century. Having started working in a hospital in the mid-50s, Elizabeth was shocked by the attitude towards hopeless patients on the part of medical staff, seeking to pay attention only to those who could still be saved. Kübler-Ross has repeatedly stated in her reports and articles: death is as important a stage in life as birth. The dying process deserves special study. It was with her speeches that the movement for the creation of hospices began - institutions for providing medical and psychological care to the terminally ill. Kübler-Ross became the first professional doctor to begin studying near-death experiences and collecting stories from people who experienced clinical death. Her vast experience of communicating with the dying allowed her to conclude: death is not the end, and we can even reconstruct the sensations and events that await us after it. This book is a collection consisting of three reports by Kübler-Ross on the topic of dying and life after death, in which she sets out her views on these processes. Isn’t it comforting to know that with our earthly death not only “everything will end”, but we still have many discoveries ahead?
