Radio Curious pays tribute to the life of Dr. Sherwin Nuland, author of several books, including âHow We Die,â and âThe Wisdom of the Body,â with an archived conversation from 1997. Dr. Nuland died on March 3, 2014 at the age of 83.

Dr. Sherwin B. Nuland, our guest in this archive edition is the author of several books, including âHow We Die,â and âThe Wisdom of the Body.â He died on March 3, 2014, at his home in Connecticut, at the age of 83. Dr. Nuland and I visited, shortly after âThe Wisdom of the Bodyâ was published, in the back of a bookstore in Santa Rosa, California on May 6, 1997.  In âThe Wisdom of the Body,â Dr. Nuland, describes the synergistic functions of the human body and considers the brain, language, and civilization from developmental perspectives. He reflects on children, and humankind as a whole, and explores aspects that have separated our species from the rest of the animal kingdom.  In this interview, originally broadcast in May, 1997, we began with his answer to the question, what is it about the human species that has allowed us to learn so much about ourselves.   The book Dr. Nuland recommended is âThe Meaning of Yiddish,â by Benjamin Harshav.
