Everyone experiences it sooner or later. This book offers perspectives on death and dying from all major religions, written by experts in each of those religions. Focusing on the major world traditions, it offers important information about what death and dying means to those practicing these faiths. The second part of the book adds a necessary and truly unique perspective - a personal look at how people actually die in the various world religions, as told by a hospital chaplain, with anecdotes and experiences that bring the death process to life, so to speak. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach chapter engages the theology of each religion, giving quotes from the literature of their respective scriptural traditions, to explain the process of dying, death, and the afterlife. In doing so, each author draws on the history of his respective tradition and looks at real-life figures, exemplars of the tradition, showing how practitioners view death and hope to one day engage the death process themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Rosen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0313356084\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313356087\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2009 pg. 111\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009 pg. 18\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulticultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2009 pg. 67","brand":"Steven Rosen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44057299714303,"sku":"9780313356087","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d3736c1-dd4d-4bce-96bb-234a3d581961.jpg?v=1685046173","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ultimate-journey-steven-rosen-9780313356087","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
