Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
The late Elisabeth Kübler-Ross was a psychiatrist and a pioneer in near-death studies. She helps us to explore what mortality can teach us about life and living. Elisabeth is the author of the best-seller, On Death and Dying (1969), and Life lessons (2000). She was also the first to discuss the "five stages of grief," also known as the "Kübler-Ross model".
