Dr. Atul Gawande’s book "Being Mortal" zoomed onto bestseller lists when it came out in October, and 6 months later it’s one of Amazon’s top 50 most popular books. People are hungry for a way to talk about health care and—yes—death. WXPR’s Emily Bright reports that the same is true in the Northwoods.
