本書作者在昔日恩師生命的最後幾個月，每星期二到老師家看他。這位誨人不倦的老師墨瑞．史瓦茲，面對著死亡一步一步逼近，不僅自己勇敢面對，窮究其多 面的意義，更藉著與學生米奇的談話，一點一點柔軟了米奇因世故而僵硬的心．讓他重新看待生活。
這位墨瑞，誠實地看見自己在死亡面前的恐懼、脆弱與哀傷，承認自己對人世的眷戀不捨，但他掙脫這些情緒的束縛，展現出洞澈人生之後的清明與安靜，並且 帶著幽默感。

作者在這樣的時刻和老師重聚，上了最後的一門課，一門學著如何活在世上、如何對待死亡的課。如今我們也有幸旁聽這堂課，汲取其中的溫暖與智慧，這是個 會發光發熱的真實故事，讀後讓你一輩子感到溫馨。

Reviews
Have you ever read a book that touches you so much that you will never ever forget? “Tuesdays with Morrie” which hit the bookstores worldwide years ago is the one you need. It is an incredibly moving portrayal of the relationship between two people who are so close that they seem to be father and son. The storyline is based on a real life experience of man, Mitch Albom with his ex-professor, Morrie. At the start of the story, the narrator gives a brief introduction of his weekly meetings with Morrie, his former professor, each Tuesday. His meetings are like an extension of his studies with Morrie. Each chapter is organized into an amazing lesson and the topics covered in the story are about the meaning of life. The classes are held in Morrie’s home but no grades are given and no books are required.
From my standpoint, this book has really brought to me laughter and sadness. When I read the whole story, there are a lot of food for thought in my mind – love, family, money, death and the like. As Morrie says in the story, money is not a substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. I really think this statement is so true. Money means nothing, and neither money nor power can be substitute for tenderness. A person who is fond of money and power will only end up living on his own forever and ever.
Morrie deliberately mentions “death” many times throughout the story because he wants to let people understand his attitude toward death. I quote him as saying that when we realize we are going to die, we will see everything differently, learn how to die, and learn how to live. I think much of what he says is quite true. A person who is on the verge of death will know how to cherish and appreciate what he/she possess, and look back on the past. Everyone should enjoy the moments they have in their lifetime before their lives come to end. “Tuesday with Morrie” is a must-read book for all kinds of readers. It inspires me a lot about the meaning of life. It also teaches me how to live my life at my own pace, and helps me change my attitudes toward life. If you still haven’t read this book, don’t hesitate to get one in a bookshop right now
This book is an extremely heartwarming story about Mitch Albom, and his mentor, Morrie Schwartz, who was his professor 20 years ago. Once Mitch received news that Morrie was dying and had only a few months left to live, Mitch flew over to spend his last days with him. It was a class every Tuesday that Morrie held just for Mitch where he taught him everything Mitch needed to know to survive in the real world, from love to jealousy to anger to fear to forgiveness. These lessons, Mitch soon realized, were much more meaningful and fulfilling compared to the ones he'd learned within the classrooms in college. These are the lessons that are learned through real-life experiences. Morrie eventually passed away, but Mitch was left with great lessons to contribute to the rest of the world.
