New Edition : With a new chapter addressing contemporary issues in end-of-life care A runaway bestseller and National Book Award winner, Sherwin Nuland's How We Die has become the definitive text on perhaps the single most universal human concern: death. This new edition includes an all-embracing and incisive afterword that examines the current state of health care and our relationship with life as it approaches its terminus. It also discusses how we can take control of our own final days and those of our loved ones. Shewin Nuland's masterful How We Die is even more relevant than when it was first published.
作者在耶鲁大学教授外科和医学史，也是《康涅狄格医学》期刊（Connecticut Medicine)的文学编辑和《医学史及相关科学》期刊（Journal of the History of Mecicine and Alied Sciences）的总编。他所著的《麻醉的起源》（The Origins of Anesthesia）被列为医学图书馆的必备经典。

2020 第52 How we die ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ISBN：0679414614 Mar 8th
作者认为死亡是一种正常的自然规则的经历，它不是敌人，疾病才是。而不论死于各种情况，归根结底都是氧气供应系统崩溃而造成的细胞死亡。
作者细致的介绍了冠心病、中风、阿尔兹海默症、抑郁、艾滋、癌症的病程进展中对人体产生的各种反应，还专门讨论了非正常死亡中的事故与谋杀所引起的失血性休克死亡与脓血性...2020 第52 How we die ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ISBN：0679414614 Mar 8th
作者认为死亡是一种正常的自然规则的经历，它不是敌人，疾病才是。而不论死于各种情况，归根结底都是氧气供应系统崩溃而造成的细胞死亡。
作者细致的介绍了冠心病、中风、阿尔兹海默症、抑郁、艾滋、癌症的病程进展中对人体产生的各种反应，还专门讨论了非正常死亡中的事故与谋杀所引起的失血性休克死亡与脓血性休克死亡。
医生提出了一种观点，对于绝症病人不应当许以虚幻的希望而过度治疗，而应该正视死亡，与家人沟通，使家人给予陪伴与爱。这个情况因人而异吧？有些人得知真相的后精神完全垮掉，病情发展的速度更快。我倒是赞成不应该过度治疗而应该有尊严地死去。

"If one were to name the universal factor in all death, whether cellular or planetary, it would certainly be loss of oxygen. Dr. Milton Helpern, who was for twenty years the Chief Medical Examiner of New York City, is said to have stated it quite clearly in a single sentence: " Death may be due to a wide variety of disease and disorders, but in every case, the underlying physiological cause is ...

如果十年前读可能会给五星吧。这些年的学术训练改变了我对非虚构的期望值，现在读来文字太冗长太抒情，枝节繁多又太松散，冲淡了记录和反思。

via Memory's Last Breath. 这本书比较 technical，不是 Atul Gawande 的那种人文关怀风格。讲 dementia 的部分挺让人受震动的。另一个问题是书比较旧了。

了解死亡的具体机理, 理解个体的死亡都是自然的得以继续的基础, 特别有助于缓解死亡焦虑。
