" Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them.

If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? read more

"This book was so compelling and inspirational to me, because a member of my family is deteriorating from this very same type of cancer. This story was one that made me smile the whole way through because he was so optamistic and told all about all the dreams he had as a child coming true as an adult.
"Most people at first glance assume that this is a book about death. However, this book radiates with life and hope. It is inspirational, even until the very last page. Pausch's words are impactful, yet heartfelt and youthful. He lets the reader think about what their dreams are and how by embracing our aspirations, we have truly lived. It is an excellent piece of literature and goes beyond the potential of being a classic."
"Great book - inspirational, but not cheesy; incredible insights into the author's thoughts on life and living. An amazing legacy to the author's children that I was privileged enough to be let in on via this book. Would highly recommend!"
"This is a must have and a "keeper". Pausch's memoirs caused me to reflect upon my own life deeper than I ever have. It sits beside "Tuesdays with Morrie" and has just as much impact on those who read it."
