Product Description

At the edge of mortality there is a place where the seriously ill or dying wait--a place where they may often feel vulnerable or alone. For over forty years, bioethicist cum philosopher Richard Zaner has been at the side of many of those people offering his incalculable gift of listening, and helping to lighten their burdens--not only with his considerable skills, but with his humanity as well. The narratives Richard Zaner shares in CONVERSATIONS ON THE EDGE are informed by his depth of knowledge in medicine and bioethics, but are never "clinical." A genuine and caring heart beats underneath his compassionate words. Zaner has written several books in which he tells poignant stories of patients and families he has encountered; there is no question that this is his finest.
