A wise and comforting collection of quotes and meditations, together with a guide to humanist funerals, from the Sunday Times bestselling authors of The Little Book of Humanism
From the Sunday Times bestselling authors of THE LITTLE BOOK OF HUMANISM

A humanist funeral allows us the freedom to remember and celebrate the life of someone in exactly the way we want to and - as the most popular alternative to a religious ceremony - put us more closely in touch with the precious nature of life.

In a beautiful collection of insights from humanist celebrants, as well as quotes, poems and meditations from humanist writers and thinkers throughout history, THE LITTLE BOOK OF HUMANIST FUNERALS is the perfect introduction to the humanist approach to life and death.
