    About this ebook

    The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    If we were destined to perish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? How would your Last Lecture be?

    The Last Lecture is not about dying, it is about the dedication to overcome your obstacles and seizing every single moment of your life. You could summarize it as "carpe diem" but it's not so simple. The book is about the accumulation of the life of a brilliant man whom after facing terminal cancer, notices he is near his last lecture, the last mark he would leave. And it can be a lesson to all of us, to live like we were going to give our last lecture in order to make the most of it.

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand." – Randy Pausch

    Pausch's book is a combination of inspiration, intelligence and humor which is the reason why The Last Lecture was such a successful release. A book to encourage living our lives and continue moving forward despite how grim the situation might be.

    An inspirational tool to make you adopt an attitude of not giving up. A book to encourage us to leave a memorable legacy.

    P.S. The Last Lecture is an extraordinary book that will make you seize every moment as it is your last so you can enjoy life to the fullest.

    P.P.S. It was Albert Einstein who famously said that once you stop learning, you start dying. It was Bill Gates who said that he would want the ability to read faster if he could only have one superpower in this world. Abbey Beathan's mission is to bring across amazing golden nuggets in amazing books through our summaries. Our vision is to make reading non-fiction fun, dynamic and captivating.

      I am very inspired by SN Goenka's discourses. The topics and meditation he talks about is non denominational and has great benefits. I highly recommend reading this if you are interested in meditation and peace of mind!!
    • 5/5
      The book explores the death theme and one man's feelings towards death as he faces it head-on; and as he shares his memories and insights with others, but mostly for the benefit of his little growing family to guide and remember him by. It is a very moving and hits home far too often book. I love it!!

      This is a father's love letter to his family. It is beyond beautiful.
