<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Heartfelt, deeply moving, and incredibly real, this book tells the story of Treya Killam Wilber as she battles--and ultimately loses her life to--cancer. Recalled by her husband, renowned American philosopher Ken Wilber, her story unfolds through a combination of her personal journals and Ken's philosophical commentary. It is a journey of love, hope, suffering, and coming to terms with the harmony found in even the worst of things"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Coming soon as a Major Motion Picture</b> <p/>Heartfelt, deeply moving, and incredibly real, this narrative shares the five-year journey of philosopher Ken Wilber and his wife, Treya Killam Wilber, through Treya's illness, treatment, and death. Ken's wide-ranging commentary--which questions conventional and New Age approaches to illness and reaches beyond the experience to find wisdom in pain--is combined with Treya's journals to create a portrait of health and healing, wholeness and harmony, and suffering and surrender. This edition includes a new preface by the author.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Anyone who has cancer or anyone who is supporting someone with cancer should read this book."--<i>Tricycle</i> <p/>A tremendously moving love story. Wilber presents cancer as a healing crisis, an occasion for self-confrontation and growth.--<i>Publishers Weekly </i> <p/>A singular achievement. It succeeds as a story of one cancer patient's experience, as a guidebook for patients and their caretakers, as a love story, as a survey of the world's mystical traditions, as an examination of death and dying, and as an exploration of relationship as a means for spiritual development.--<i>Natural Health</i> <p/>A deep and searing look at living, dying, loving, death, and resurrection.--M. Scott Peck, M.D. <p/>A rare book--a love story that brings the perennial wisdom of the ages to life in all the anguish and exaltation that comprise the human condition. Treya Killam Wilber's honesty, vibrancy, and compassion speak through her many journal entries, masterfully woven with Ken's text, to make <i>Grace and Grit </i> a true experience of sacred partnership.--Joan Borysenko, Ph.D.; author of <i>Minding the Body, Mending the Mind </i>and <i>Guilt Is the Teacher, Love Is the Lesson </i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Ken Wilber is one of the most widely read and influential American philosophers of our time. His writings have been translated into over twenty foreign languages. He lives in Denver, Colorado.</p>
