About This Book
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. And while they speak, audiences can't help but mull the same
question: 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?
When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was
asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last,
since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal 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.
In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, 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.
"We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand."
