The Last Lecture by Jeff Zaslow, Jeffrey Zaslow, Randy Pausch (2008)

Inspirational and uplifting! This book is an easy read...short, sweet, thought provoking...a great outline on how to live life to it's fullest!

GREAT BOOK, EASY READ,WONDERFUL OUTLOOK ON A MUCH TOO SHORT LIFE. MAKES YOU WANT TO BE A BETTER PERSON AND LIVE A MORE MEANINGFUL LIFE. GREAT TEACHER,HUSBAND, FATHER AND FRIEND. DREAMS DO COME TRUE BUT IT TAKES HARD WORK AND NEVER TAKE NO FOR A ANSWER. GOD BLESS HIM.

I enjoyed reading this book because it talks about the importance of life and cherishing each moment we have. It makes you think a lot about your own life and the people you have known. I bought the book because I had seen the interview with Diane Sawyer on 20/20 and thought it would be interesting. And I am glad I did read it, it helped me to realize that life is precious and we should never take anyone or anything for granted.

Havent read it yet. bought it because I love his story. I wnted to read his book. Found it for a great price.

I absolutely LOVED the book. Excellent story line and great advice to all!! I even bought the book for a friend and he LOVED it as well. He said he has been telling everyone that he comes in contact with about it. It's spreading like wildfire!

Description provided by seller as to condition etc was correct. Shipping time excellent. Loved the item. Received in gift quality.

This was a really good book! It was everything I thought it would be and more! A good read for anyone!

The customer that ordered the book really enjoyed while on vacation. She thought the book was done to earth and very emotional.

This story is inspirational and keeps it fresh in our mind that life is a gift from God. It tells Randy Pausch's outlook on cancer and what he plans to do with the time he has left.

When I watched Randy on TV tell his story. I was just hooked on finding out more on The Last Lecture. I just love the how the story is told.

I love that the author, Randy Pausch, decided to share such a difficult time in his life with others. It is a book that all should read; there is love, understanding, faith, wisdom and much more that we can all learn from Randy! Thank you and God Bless, Laura Owen

I enjoy the fact that the product came in so quickly. I also like that it wasn't terribly expensive and was in perfect condition. I do not, however enjoy the fact that in order to write this review section, I need to type at least 100 characters. lol. But everything about the trasaction went well. Thanks again! :D

One of my good friends told me about this book. He said that he watched the lecture online and the book was great. I bought the book and read it as soon as I recieved it. It is a very motivational book. I would recommend it to anyone. It really makes you stop and think about life.

This in an extremely inspirational book. i read it in one night. i had seen his lecture on youtube and the book gives more insight to what he was saying. INCREDIBLE.

Although not purchased through E-bay's half.com site (the seller had to cancel) I did eventually get the book and loved it. It's something that brings us all back to "earth" and to make us realize what is and should be important in our lives. I wish I could have the attitude of Randy Pausch and I'm trying to do so daily-I just hope it doesn't take a life threating illness to make me realize how lucky I really am.

Enjoy.

How fortunate his students were to have him as their Professor. My only negative was that he didn't share more of his spiritual feelings and to me this would be very important for his children.

It was an easy book to read. I recommend it to anybody that needs a little lift. The guy has a good out look on life. And with what he is up against, that amazes me. I would also recommend after reading this book to go online and listen to the last lecture. The book is more detailed and has a quite a bit more to it but the live lecture is better after you have read the book.

i bought this book after seeing Randy Pausch on 20/20 and Oprah. the book followed along with much of what he talked about on the two shows but it was still worth the read. it takes the reader into the life of a person dealing with pancreatic cancer while trying to parent 3 young kids and still be a husband. it can be considered a motivational read but goes well beyond that. it is well worth the cost and you wont be able to put it down.

I purchased the book because I had seen him on tv special and was moved by him. The book was excellent in my opinion, it just made me think of things differently about certain things. The mind is a terrible thing to waste and different options or opinions aren't bad either. I am a nursing supervisor and the one quote that caught my eye and I try to do every day is, "Just because you are in the drivers seat doesn't mean you have to run over people." I have given the book for others to read also and they have passed it on and have enjoyed as much as I did.

Book will give you hope...Please pray for this man, he deserves to live and continue his good works.

I bought this book because it was recommended to me by my trainer in the Primerica business my husband and I are part of. This book was very easy to read, but also very deep. I was amazed that this man could have such a positive outlook even though he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. I expected it to be really sad because of that, but found myself, instead, inspired to make the most of every day, and to be grateful (and not take for granted) the many blessings in my life. I loved that he had such a desire to leave a lasting legacy for his children -- as a parent I believe that is so important. The Last Lecture was truly a reminder to live life to the fullest, to see the good in every situation, to dream big and think forward, and to pass all that on to our children and to others with who we come in contact. I think anyone could benefit from reading this book.

I throughly enjoyed reading The Last Lecture. It is a sensitive story of a man fighting to preserve some memories for his wife and children before he passes away from terminal pancreatic cancer. The popularity of this book made it impossible to find in any of the local bookstores or libraries in my community, so I searched Ebay and found it there. The purchase went smoothly and I received my book in only days. I finished reading the book in only four hours. I would recommend it to all readers.

This book is so so inspiring and will make you cry. This man is so brave to fight his cancer head on and never stop living his life.

One of the Better books for putting things into perspective. Hopefully anyone who reads this will come away with something. Compassion,humility,etc. Leaves you pulling for the professor and teaching people about death with dignity.
