I was hired at Emory in 1994. With Atlanta’s Olympics coming in 1996, the chair suggested I do something that highlights religion in Atlanta. We organized a conference at the Carter Center and then I put this collection together. I was shocked when he agreed to write the foreword to the book.

One of the last topics we cover in death class is suicide. Students are deeply curious about it and anxious to find a different intellectual frame to explore and understand the reality. We read a bit from this excellent study that puts suicide and death in a very different light.
