SynopsisPractical and inspiring, this book helps you learn how to navigate encounters with death, dying, and bereavement. The authors emphasize ways that individuals and families can cope with life-threatening illness, grief, funerals, and other death-related topics -- including how to communicate constructively in the face of death. You'll learn about aided death -- a topic on many people's minds these days -- as well as about Alzheimer's disease and other life-altering conditions and prominent causes of death. You'll read personal stories and get insight into cultural and religious perspectives that affect people's encounters, attitudes, and practices in death-related matters. And you'll discover that you can gain important lessons about life and living from the study of death, dying, and bereavement.

Not a brand new book
Item is not at described. It is not brand new there is scratches all over it. There is hair all over the center gage stickers and the sides are all dented. Does not come in any kind of wrapping. Would not recommend if you are wanting a clean brand new book. Very disappointing
