On Being a Human Being

E. M. Adams, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill


In the last term I taught, I was asked by students to participate in a Last Lecture series, that is, to give the lecture I would give if I knew that it would be my last lecture. I was unable to participate for health reasons. I shall now try to write what I would want to say in a last lecture. I do this for the discipline it imposes in making me focus on what I count the most important things I have to say to students and others at the beginning of the twenty-first century and the end of my career.
