Description automatically generatedDescription of A Beginner’s Guide to the End:

The first-ever practical, compassionate, and comprehensive guide to dying – and living fully until you do.

“There is nothing wrong with you for dying.” Palliative care Doctor BJ Miller and Shoshana Berger write in A Beginner’s Guide to the End. “Our ultimate purpose here isn’t so much to help you die as it is to free up as much life as possible until you do.”

 

We hope you join the conversation!
