Elisabeth KüblerRoss

    8 luglio 1926 – 24 agosto 2004

    Pioniera negli studi sulle esperienze di pre-morte, questa autrice esplora l'esperienza umana nell'affrontare la mortalità. Il suo lavoro rivoluzionario ha introdotto un modello fondamentale che delinea cinque fasi del lutto, un quadro che ha plasmato profondamente la nostra comprensione della perdita. Attraverso le sue analisi illuminanti, illumina i complessi viaggi emotivi e psicologici che gli individui intraprendono di fronte alla propria morte o alla morte di una persona cara. Il suo approccio distintivo e la profonda empatia hanno influenzato significativamente il discorso sulle esperienze di fine vita e sul lutto.

Includes a new introduction and resources section.Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's On Death and Dying changed the way we talk about the end of life. Before her own death in 2004, she and David Kessler completed On Grief and Grieving , which looks at the way we experience the process of grief.Just as On Death and Dying taught us the five stages of death -- denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance -- On Grief and Grieving applies these stages to the grieving process and weaves together theory, inspiration, and practical advice, including sections on sadness, hauntings, dreams, isolation, and healing.

      Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, M.D., has profoundly changed global perceptions of death and dying. Her influential work began with the publication of *On Death and Dying*, and throughout her career, she provided comfort to countless individuals facing terminal illness, including children, AIDS patients, and the elderly. Now, at seventy-one and confronting her own mortality, she shares her life story and her belief that death does not exist. With warmth and honesty, her memoir reflects her intellectual and spiritual journey. Kübler-Ross embraces her individuality, stating, "If I am opinionated and independent... so what? That is me." Her conviction, which challenged dogma and skepticism, was evident from her childhood in Switzerland, where she witnessed injustice and resolved to effect change. Her experiences, from aiding war-torn Poland to counseling the dying and leading seminars at the University of Chicago, contributed to her understanding of life and death. In a society that often avoids discussions about death, Kübler-Ross illuminated the topic, encouraging openness and acceptance. Through her remarkable life story, she emphasizes that free will is our greatest gift and that our purpose is spiritual evolution.
