Cancer in young people is rare, but it is still a major health issue in Europe. Each year, more than 6,000 young people in Europe die of cancer. There are more than 300,000 European childhood cancer survivors (in 2020, they will be nearly half a million): two-thirds of them have some late side effects of treatment, that are severe and impact on the daily life of half of those affected.

“The Last Lecture” is a profoundly moving and inspirational book that draws its origins from a poignant tradition among professors. These educators are asked to contemplate the ultimate question: What would they impart to the world if they knew their time was running out? What legacy would they wish to leave behind if they were to vanish tomorrow?
Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, found himself facing this very challenge, but he didn’t need to imagine it as his last lecture—it was a reality thrust upon him by a terminal cancer diagnosis. However, his lecture, titled “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams,” transcended the shadow of death. Instead, it became a powerful testament to the significance of surmounting life’s obstacles, nurturing the aspirations of others, and seizing every precious moment. Pausch’s message resounds with the wisdom that time is our most valuable currency, and it’s finite; we might one day realize that we have less of it than we assumed. His talk encapsulated a lifetime of beliefs, ultimately emphasizing the essence of truly living.
In this remarkable book, Randy Pausch crystallizes the humor, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture a worldwide sensation. He takes the essence of his message and immortalizes it in print, ensuring that his profound insights will continue to inspire and resonate with generations to come. “The Last Lecture” is a timeless work that invites readers to reflect on their own lives, aspirations, and the legacy they aspire to leave behind. It serves as an enduring testament to the power of resilience, dreams, and the pursuit of a life well-lived.
