The phenomenal international bestseller - with over 8 million
copies sold. What legacy would you choose to leave behind for your
children? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at
Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give 'a last lecture' lecture, he
didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been
diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. But the lecture he gave,
'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasn't about dying. It
was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the
dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you
have and you may find one day that you have less than you think).
It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was
about living. A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last
Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to
ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart
to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish
tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? In this book, Randy
Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that
made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form.
It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.
