One of the most amazing women of the twentieth century. This is the story of her life. A book you can’t put down. She comes over as a woman you would be in awe but is very down to earth and matter of fact. A real good book. (

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0684846314, Paperback)

Psychiatrist and author of On Death and Dying Elisabeth Kübler-Ross has long been considered an expert on the terminally ill, and she is credited with bringing the hospice movement to the United States. Now retired after a series of strokes, and, at 70, facing her own death, she has written The Wheel of Life: A Memoir of Living and Dying, a highly personal memoir. Besides telling her unusual life's story, this book is also a startling treatise on death. Recounting her research with the dying and with those who claim to have "returned" after dying, Dr. Kübler-Ross also writes eloquently about her belief in the afterlife.
