520    "Recognized as the father of palliative care in North 
       America, Balfour Mount facilitated a sea change in medical
       practice by foregrounding concern for the whole person 
       facing incurable illness. In this intimate and far-
       reaching memoir, Mount leads the reader through the 
       formative moments and milestones of his personal and 
       professional life as they intersected with the history of 
       medical treatment over the last fifty years. Mount's 
       lifelong pursuit of understanding the needs of dying 
       patients began during his training as a surgical 
       oncologist at Montreal's Royal Victoria Hospital in the 
       1960s. He established the first comprehensive clinical 
       program for end-of-life care in a teaching hospital in 
       1975 at McGill University's Royal Victoria Hospital, thus 
       leading the charge for palliative medicine as a new 
       specialty. His journey included collaboration with two 
       storied healthcare innovators, British hospice pioneer 
       Dame Cicely Saunders and American psychiatrist Elisabeth 
       Kübler-Ross, leading to a more fulsome understanding of 
       the physical, psychosocial, and existential or spiritual 
       needs of patients, their families, and their caregivers in
       the health care setting. This compelling narrative 
       documents how the 'Royal Vic' team became internationally 
       recognized as effective advocates of quality of life at 
       the crossroad between life and death. From meetings with 
       Viktor Frankl, the Dalai Lama and other teachers, to a 
       memorable telephone chat with Mother Teresa, Mount recalls
       with appreciation, humour and humility, the places and 
       people that helped to shed light on this universal human 
       experience."--|cProvided by publisher.
