Here is a review of the audiobook by Greg Schneider:

"A Unique Look at the Taboo Topic of Death"

This excellent audiobook will help most anyone to begin the discussion on a topic most people avoid until they are forced to, either by a life-threatening diagnosis or a friend or loved one's imminent death. The book takes a simple, yet thought provoking approach to help you to begin to contemplate your mortality...not from a religious point of view but from a broad yet novel cross-cultural view. 

The end result is that the author helps you to look at this topic in a way that can help reduce your fears around this often taboo topic of death. 

My own advice to others who are in a situation where they are wanting to support a friend or family member who is dying, is to keep your heart open and don't let fear interfere with your experience. Those who took this approach generally came away from the experience transformed by it. 

Kelvin's book can help you prepare to have your own transforming experience.
