Jewish Reflections on Death

Rating:
Summary: Reprint of a fine anthology from 1974
Review: This anthology, edited by Jack Riemer, has an intro by Kubler-Ross, and articles by such notables as Samuel Dresner ("The Deaths of the Hasidic Masters"), Joseph Soloveichik ("The Halachah of the First Day"), Abraham Joshua Heschel (("Death as Homecoming"), Jacob Neusner ("Death in Jerusalem"), Elie Wiesel ("The Death of My Father")-- to name just a few. Some are personal memoires, others are issues-oriented, all give interesting perspectives. (This is a reprint of a book that first came out in 1974.)
