Joan Halifax, boeddhistische roshi, werkt met mensen in het laatste stadium van hun leven (in verzorgingstehuizen en in de dodencel). Ze deelt wat ze heeft geleerd over medeleven in het aanschijn van dood en sterven, en een diep inzicht in de aard van empathie.

Known for her compassionate work with the terminally ill, Joan Halifax is a driving force of socially engaged Buddhism. Full bio »
