The last in the series with Rabbi Julia Neuberger Facing Death
Over the last few years much of the death taboo has broken down, but it is still seen as a full stop, not a right of passage, by many. Should we incorporate death into our way of life? Are there any choices which we can make about death? How do we cope with the unexpected death of the young or the more predictable death of the old? Is death the final failure or our last chance of success? Does faith help?
Julia Neuberger discusses these issues with The Rt Rev Tony Bridge, DeanofGuildford
Dr Vicky Clement-Jones , cancer victim who founded the British Association of Cancer United Patients Dr Tom West ,
Medical Director of St Christopher's Hospice and Professor Ted Honderich , atheist and philosopher Director SIMON HAMMOND
