Dr. Paul Kalanithi’s skill as a lyrical and contemplative writer brings the reader a profound gift by fusing his medical knowledge with his expected death. I am full of admiration for him as a very enlightened being. In using his dying experience for this book he helps all who read it to live their lives more fully. His repeated theme of wanting to find meaning in life reminded me of a previous work I’ve valued, "Through the Dark Woods: Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life" by Dr. James Hollis, who says happiness is not life’s goal – a meaningful life is.
