Description
That Good Night Life and Medicine in the Eleventh Hour is a profound exploration of the intersection of medicine and spirituality, one that will resonate with anyone who has ever grappled with the complexities of life and death.
The author, Dr. Sunita Puri, draws on her own experiences as a medical professional and her family's stories to illuminate the tension between medicine's impulse to preserve life at all costs and a spiritual embrace of life's temporality.
This thought-provoking book offers a unique perspective on palliative medicine, one that will arm readers with information and insights that will transform how they communicate with their doctors about what matters most to them.
