Swiss ethicist and writer Thomas Gröbli has an incurable nerve disease: ALS. His book “Einen Augenblick Staunen” is about life and death and how to deal with the world in order to leave it in good condition. His friend and former SBS German producer Adrian Plitzco worked on the audio book and shares his experiences and thoughts.
