  • "Nell'agosto 2007, il professor Randy Pausch ha saputo che il cancro contro il quale combatteva era incurabile e che gli restavano pochi mesi di vita. Ha scelto di lasciare subito il suo lavoro all'università per stare vicino alla moglie Jai e ai loro bambini. Prima, però, il 18 settembre 2007, ha tenuto davanti a 400 studenti e colleghi la sua "ultima lezione", intitolata "Realizzare davvero i sogni dell'infanzia". Con ironia, fermezza e coraggio, ha ripercorso le tappe della sua esperienza, e il suo discorso è una testimonianza toccante e profonda di una vita resa straordinaria dall'intensità con la quale è stata vissuta."
  • ""We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand." --Randy Pausch A lot of professors give talks titled "The Last Lecture." Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them. And while they speak, audiences can't help but mull the same question: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance' If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy' When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave--"Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams"--wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have...and you may find one day that you have less than you think"). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, inspiration and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come."@en
  • "Profesor računalništva z neozdravljivim rakom raziskuje svoje življenje in vse, kar se je naučil. Piše, kaj je naredil, da je uresničil svoje otroške sanje ter kako je diagnoza učinkovala nanj in na njegovo družino."
  • "Después de recibir la noticia que padece un cáncer terminal, el autor da una última conferencia en la que reflexiona sobre las cosas importantes que ha aprendido en la vida. Randy Pausch es un gran orador y su discurso se ha comparado con el último de Martín Luther King y con otros discursos memorables. La conferencia entera de setenta minutos está en YouTube y recibe unos 80.000 hits diarios. Las palabras de Pausch contagian la alegría de vivir y una actitud positiva ante la adversidad, nos ayudan a no quejarnos, a no compadecernos. Son un vendaval de optimismo y vida, son especiales, y por eso han dado la vuelta al mundo, porqué son lo que las personas queremos y necesitamos oír.--Desde la descripción de la editorial."
