A review by martynahanna
Being Mortal by Atul Gawande
5.0
I have always had, for lack of a better word, a fascination with ageing, and this book has added another dimension to my understanding of the process, and a holistic, most humane approach to it.
What really matters in the end is the autonomy, the authorship of one's own life. A lot to think about still, but Gawande also gives some excellent references for further research.
