Top sports journalist Mitch Albom's greatest success came out of left field when his old sociology professor, Morrie Schwartz, received a death sentence from the doctor: Lou Gehrig's disease. As Morrie's health degenerated, every Tuesday morning Albom began attending what became Morrie's last class. What he learned has changed the lives of millions of readers. Morrie gives his student a crash course on living: clear and ruthless hindsight on what matters most when your days are numbered, writes novelist Amy Tan. Finally in paperback!
