Description

This book brings together perspectives from social science, health-care and pastoral theology, looking atÂ the way death is handled in contemporary society and the sensitive ethical and practical dilemmas facing nurses, social workers, doctors and chaplains. Review In this beautifully written book, Margaret Holloway.....has managed to produce a text that is academic, practical and sensitive. I highly recommend this book to nursing students and practitioners. Nursing Standard, Vol 22: 45, 2008. ...the book provides a very useful overview for those wishing to develop a more integrated knowledge base for working with dying or bereaved people. Tony Walters, University of Bath This book is welcome and timely, given the demographic changes associated with an ageing population and the social, ethical and philosophical questions that arise. Mortality journal, 2009 This is a book that could be used individually or within health and social care teams for discussion, and is relevant to social workers and health care practitioners alike... it is refreshing to find a book prepared to bring the often taboo subject of death into the 21st century. Margaret Surrey, Professional Social Work, June 2008 This is a major exploration of conversations about death and loss between the social sciences, helping professions, and recent religious and spirituality discourses. The insights from these areas are used to explore meanings of death in two increasingly uncertain worlds - professional practice and Late Modernity. A book of enduring value for both academics and practitioners. Allan Kellehear, Centre for Death & Society, University of Bath. This one, wonderful book is an extraordinary resource, offering a comprehensive summary of what we know and think about dying and bereavement. Moreover, it sensitively applies this as a way that practitioners will find both helpful and easy to access. This is an essential title for all who work with the dying and bereaved or who teach those who do. Kenneth J. Doka, Senior Consultant, The Hospice Foundation of America About the Author Margaret Holloway is Professor of Social Work at the University of Hull.
