Book Cover Design Brief
ALS is the diagnosis that Philipp is allocated, aged 47. A severe, degenerative illness affecting motor neurons in the central nervous system - unthinkable, irreversible, and allegedly fatal. For a man, whose life hitherto has been defined by sports, travel, and adventure, this diagnosis heralds a stark break with the past. And yet, despite the realization that he will need, slowly but surely, to forfeit his ability to move, and will live dependent on the help of others, Philipp does not lose courage. He begins to examine the fundamental imponderables: Questions about life and death;
conventional medicine versus possible alternatives; meaning and spirituality. The diagnosis with ALS pushes him toward experiments in therapy, where he garners unforeseen experiences, launching him into an extensive process, of which the result is by no means capitulation, but rather, a new departure - because only through his illness, has Philipp come to know what it means, to be
truly happy.
The book was originally published in German but has now been translated to English and we want a new cover design that will speak to the right english speaking audience.
