In general the book talks about death in depth including different cultural beliefs and actions regarding the process. There is one description of animal sacrifice that is fairly explicit, and an intense recounting of circumstances to terminating a wanted pregnancy due to terminal illness and risk of miscarriage/early infant death, not only in regards to emotions and procedures but also the reactions of anti-choice protesters.leweylibrary's review against another edition
