Description

Explore the complex realities of mortality in Representations of Death: A Social Psychological Perspective. Published by Routledge, this book offers a rare and original ethnography of contemporary mortuary practices. It moves beyond theory to examine the medical, bureaucratic, commercial, and ritual aspects of death through direct observation. By going behind the scenes at hospitals, funeral parlors, crematoria, and cemeteries, the text provides a unique look at the industry. The author, Bradbury, conducts poignant, in-depth interviews with bereaved women to highlight the different perspectives held by deathwork professionals and grieving relatives. This book serves as a significant contribution to the growing literature on the subject, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in medical, legal, and social sciences. The text is further enhanced with stunning photographs that provide visual context to the social psychological study of death.
