Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, M.D., the Swiss-born physician, author, and lecturer, touched the lives of countless people around the world with her universal message that each moment of a patient’s life matters, especially when facing a life-limiting illness. She taught us that hospice is about living, not dying; transformed age-old taboos about end-of-life discussions; and challenged us to think about what it means to be alive.

Elisabeth had the remarkable ability to establish a deep, communal bond with people, whether she was inspiring millions through the messages in her books, addressing a packed lecture hall, or sitting down to a hot cup of tea with a guest. Taking tea was Elisabeth’s way of connecting and sharing in an extremely disconnected society. Symbolically, she truly did "take tea" with the entire global community through her ground-breaking work.

The fifty-one contributors to Tea With Elisabeth come from all walks of life and include bestselling authors, leaders in hospice and palliative care, well-known colleagues, family members, and friends of Elisabeth’s. They share their poignant—and at times lighthearted—stories and tributes, providing extraordinary insight into one of the great compassionate souls of our era.

"Elisabeth gave life to death as no one has before or since."
–J. Donald Schumacher, Psy.D., President and CEO, National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization

"Elisabeth taught us that self-realization is an important part of understanding the meaning of life as well as our individual lives. It is not coincidence, then, that the woman who taught us so much about death and dying as a process was truly the greatest champion of life."
–Muhammad Ali
