#212 | The Limits of Science in Grasping the Human Condition—a Young Doctor on Facing His Own Mortality

🎙 Douglas Vigliotti discusses the thought-provoking memoir “When Breath Becomes Air” by Paul Kalanithi, a neurosurgeon who powerfully explores the profound questions of meaning, purpose, and mortality that arise when the young doctor faces his own terminal illness. Through Kalanithi's deeply personal and eloquent writing, listeners are confronted with the existential challenges of what it means to be human in the face of life's fragility. This book is a poignant meditation on one of life's most challenging questions: what makes a life worth living?✓ Sign up for the monthly newsletter at BooksforMen.org.⚡️ Connect with the host on Instagram @douglasvigliotti or learn more about him at DouglasVigliotti.com.⭐️ Please consider sharing "Books for Men" with other men who enjoy reading, or subscribing and rating on your favorite podcast platform.
