Good Overview of the Subject
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
These authors have been doing this series for a while, and have a good overall grasp of the issues involved in the areas of grief, loss, death and dying. There is also an associated website with summaries and flashcards. A good way to learn the basic terrain of the subject matter quickly and thoroughly. This was a prescribed book for me, and I bought several other books I thought would be good. This was the best of what I found for a historical and contemporary overview of the different parts and how they relate. For specialization in any area, look into that area elsewhere.

excellent

This book accomplishes a rare feat--appealing to those who would use it as a teaching guide but also so readable that the average reader will find it fascinating and invaluable. It is packed with illustrations as well as solid advice and history--from ancient funeral practices to today's arguments on assisted suicide. In between is every conceivable question and answer you could want on the subject of dying and death.
