Morris S. Schwartz

"A retired sociology professor, Morrie had been diagnosed as having Lou Gehrig's disease, a terminal degenerative disorder, and chose to live as fully as possible in the time left to him. His willingness to talk about the effects of the disease and his evolving understanding of living and dying led to public fame. Before he died, he completed his own personal memoir, objectively studying himself as his health declines, recording his thoughts, feelings, and memories. Personal, heartfelt, succinct observations form the core of the book. He recounts how he coped with decreasing physical ability, managed his emotions, related to others, reflecting on what the words in his aphorisms meant and sharing an anecdote or piece of advice."--
