As one consciously approaches the end of life, certain questions arise. Emotional processes of varying qualities must be experienced (cf. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross). Those who embark on a practical journey with Mr. Preindl through this book will perhaps be less shocked when they seriously confront death—at the very least, they will be able to engage in the necessary inner work at a different point than if they had not undertaken these preliminary exercises. Therefore, this is a substantial book not only for those who accompany the dying or who are already facing this final phase of life themselves, but also for anyone interested in the art of living. For the art of dying directly enhances the art of living. Another humorous, profound, and life-wise book by the renowned biographical researcher.
