On Our Way: The Final Passage Through Life and Death Hardcover - 2004 - 1st Edition
by Robert Kastenbaum
From the rear cover
"Witty, exuberant, mind-opening. Only a team of psychologists, philosophers, cultural anthropologists, researchers, clinicians, and humanists--a Kastenbaum-- could have produced such a brilliant synthesis of theory, folklore, art, and astonishing new insights. If one book could keep us company on our way through that final passage, this is it. But why wait?"--Sandra Bertman, author of Facing Death: Images, Insights and Interventions
"If you're going to die, you might as well know what you're in for. Here Kastenbaum maps the territory of the other side, attending to death and its denizens through the ages and across the continents, always with empathy and often with wit."--Stephen Prothero, author of Purified by Fire
"Reading Robert Kastenbaum's new book, On Our Way, is itself a wondrous, illuminating, surprising journey. Issues of death, and therefore life, are explored along the way in this wise and profound book. This is a well-written, wide-ranging survey of the place of death in life, and the possibilities for life after death in a variety of cultural settings."--Gary Laderman, author of Rest in Peace: A Cultural History of Death and the Funeral Home in Twentieth-Century America.
