Kubler-Ross shot to fame in 1969 upon the publication of her seminal work, 'On Death and Dying'. This book spells out her somewhat unconventional position on life after death as well as her more recent criticisms of the quality of care found in hospitals. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross (The Wheel of Life, 1997) There is a time in a patient’s life when the pain ceases to be, when the mind slips off into a dreamless state, when the need for food becomes minimal and the awareness of the environment all but disappears into darkness. This is the time when the relatives walk up and down the hospital hallways.

The Wheel Of Life Elizabeth Kubler Ross

In 1969's On Death and Dying, psychiatrist Kubler-Ross was the first to sytematically ask dying patients what it was like to be terminally ill, and to identify what came to be known worldwide as 'near-death experiences.' Until then, Kubler-Ross contends, the medical establishment had not only ignored the subject of death, but had actively avoided it due to its implication of medical failure. Now, after ten books that empathetically tracked our culture's ways of dealing with sickness, death and spirituality, Kubler-Ross offers her own story in what she says will be her final book. The firstborn of triplet girls, she describes a childhood surrounded by mountains, wildflowers and a loving family in Switzerland. She shares stories of her marriage and motherhood, her deep desire to help others and to restore humanity to medicine, her explorations of out-of-body experiences and encounters with spirit guides, and the extreme resistance to her never-realized plan of caring for AIDS babies on her Virginia farm. Kubler-Ross seems to have lived several lifetimes in one, but a series of strokes has slowed her down to the point of declaring, 'Death is a wonderful and positive experience, but the process of dying, when it is prolonged like mine, is a nightmare.' She says the one question that everyone must answer at the end of life is, 'What have you done to help?' Having faced universal questions of life and death, having offered comfort to countless others, Kubler-Ross now awaits--to use her own metaphor--her transformation from cocoon to butterfly. (June)
