| Résumé : |
Since 9/11, who hasn't felt the grip of fear? Fear of accidents or acts of terror, illness or dying, loneliness or grief -- if you're like most people, such anxieties may be robbing you of the peace that could be yours. Here, Arnold tells how ordinary men, women, & children found the strength to conquer their deepest fears. Interspersed with anecdotes from such wise teachers as Tolstoy, Dickens, & Mother Teresa, Arnold's words offer the assurance that even in an age of anxiety, you can live life to the full & meet death with confidence. The book is filled with stories about people who have died, but hope is always present, & Arnold notes that it is sometimes revealed more fully in such terrible circumstances than during easy times. ### Review 'Arnold writes in a prayerful and simple way.' Paul Brand, MD author, Pain: The Gift Nobody Wants 'I have read many books about dying, but this is the one I would give to a person approaching death or facing bereavement. From start to finish it shines with hope! I want a copy beside my bed when my time comes.' Andrew Fergusson, MB, MRCGP, CMF 'This is a challenging little book which every health professional should read.' --Publisher's Weekly ### About the Author Johann Christoph Arnold is the author of best-selling titles on sexuality, parenting, death and dying, forgiveness and peace.
