During his last years, Chris faced the twin challenges of cancer (of which he died) and Alzheimer's, with which he was learning to live with grace and lightness. This is reflected in the blog he wrote during those years, which Leon Clarke has now published as the book: Wisdom and Isness. It is available from the publisher, Lulu at: http://www.lulu.com/shop/chris-clarke/wisdon-and-isness/paperback/product-24090631.html and also from Amazon Funeral.
