IL VIDEO DEL DISCORSO HA SPOPOLATO IN RETE ED E' DIVENTATO UN LIBRO
È morto Randy Pausch, commosse il mondo con la sua «Ultima lezione»
Docente alla Carnegie Mellon University di Pittsburgh, era malato di cancro. A settembre l'addio ai students
WASHINGTON - In his "Last lecture" Professor Randy Pausch, who taught computer science at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, said he did not want to be pitied and not wanting to talk about death, but life . He, 47 years and three children, died of pancreatic cancer that has spread despite treatment his body beyond repair. The final lecture to his students, held in September, was recorded and - networking - was a resounding success. Pausch talks about the dreams of childhood, the importance of dreaming and the ability to realize their desires.
HYMN TO LIFE - A lesson in life - not just of his discipline - a greeting that has deeply touched not only students at Carnegie Mellon, but around the world. And that became a book, titled "The Last Lecture," published by Rizzoli in Italy, where the themes of the lection are developed and deepened. "I have a system problem - the teacher announced, starting the lesson in front of 400 students -. Although I have always had amazing physical shape, I have ten liver metastases, and I have only a few months of life. " The final meeting between the teacher and his students, between irony and deep reflection, it was transformed into a moving hymn to life.
