The Last Lecture, Randy Pausch

If you were going to die, and had one last lecture, what would you say to your students? For Professor Randy Pausch, this wasn't a hypothetical question. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, he only had months to live when he gave his Last Lecture. It was the lecture of a lifetime. Encouraging his students to dream big, to be strong in the face of adversity, to never lose the wonder and to help others achieve their own dreams, it touched millions, becoming one of the most downloaded lectures in recent history. In this volume, Randy expands on his lecture, explaining in greater depth the wisdom that has already touched countless people. Wise, witty and incredibly moving, it's one of the most inspiring books we've read in a long while.
