There is so much in the book that I found interesting and relevant to me. The exercises, explained in a way that is easily accessible, can be applied to more than just death anxiety; the information around mental health generally, death anxiety, the causes are presented clearly and calmly. The book is like listening to a sensible friend: quiet, calm and clear-headed. Whether you are concerned that you have a death anxiety, or you know you do, or simply you are concerned that you might not be living life to its fullest, this book is worth exploring. -- Alberta Gutteridge, Host of the North London Death Cafe
