‘We are all unique beings and as we face our own death, we need to know we will be remembered but also to remember we will eventually be forgotten. This book helps us make sense of that truth for ourselves and our loved ones. I highly recommend this book for anyone at any stage of life, there is much to enrich and support our wider life journey towards our death.’ Katrina Taee, author of Surviving the Tsunami of Grief

‘This is an essential contribution to the discourse on life, death and grief. As a transpersonal psychotherapist this deeply resonated with my own experience, both personally and professionally—that living a life with a sense of meaning and purpose is not dependent on faith in some external being, but more about connecting to the universality in us all.’ Annie Broadbent, author of Speaking of Death

'Montaigne taught us that if we refuse to be cowed by the inevitability of death, we become free to live life to the full. In Living with Death without God, Valerie Jack has woven a vivid tapestry from the stories of many brave people who learned to do just that. Grief can of course be hard to bear, even overwhelming, whether the bereaved be religious or not. But reminding us throughout these sensitively and compassionately written pieces that we all leave behind our own legacy, in many different ways, helps to shine light in dark corners–especially for those who see life’s end as a destination, rather than a mere staging post to somewhere else.' Trevor Moore, Chair of My Death, My Decision

‘For those of us with a naturalistic approach to life, death is a full stop. The stories and reflections in this wonderful book help deal with that fact with a thoughtfulness, warmth and breadth that should give comfort and meaning to all.’ Andrew Copson, Chief Executive of Humanists UK
