NY: Knopf, 1994. 1ST. HARDBOUND. LIKE NEW in LIKE NEW jacket. 1ST. 6.5 x 1.25 x 9.5 inches. pp. 278. Publisher: Knopf; 1st edition (January 25, 1994) Language: English HARDBOUND: 278 pages ISBN-10: 9780679414612 ISBN-13: 978-0679414612 Item Weight: 1.45 POUNDS Dimensions: 6.5 x 1.25 x 9.5 inches. Attempting to demythologize the process of dying, Nuland explores how we shall die, each of us in a way that will be unique. Through particular stories of dying--of patients, and of his own family--he examines the seven most common roads to death: old age, cancer, AIDS, Alzheimer's, accidents, heart disease, and strokes, revealing the facets of death's multiplicity.

Nuland, MD, was Clinical Professor of Surgery at Yale University until his retirement in 2009, though he continues to teach Biomedical Ethics and Medical History to Yale undergraduates, and serve the university in various capacities.

In hardcover and paperback, How We Die was on the New York Times bestseller list for a total of thirty-four weeks, and has been translated into twenty-nine languages. Dr. Nuland and his family live in Connecticut.
