Elizabeth Harper Neeld is a former Professor of English and Assistant to the President at Texas A&M University whose publishedwork includes seventeen books. A nationally respected authority onthe subjects of personal change and organizational change, Dr. Neeld has consulted with individuals and corporations through out the United States and from countries abroad, such as Cameroon, West Africa,France, Norway, Chile, Saudi Arabia, Canada and England. She islisted in Contemporary Authors, Volume 141, p. 333; Who's Who in theWorld, 13th Edition, 1996; and Who's Who in America, 53rd Edition,1999. Her Ph. D. is in English literature, with an emphasis in 18thcentury novel. She lives in Austin, Texas.
Referring in her title to phases of the grieving process and their eventual resolution, the author (a writer and former professor of English) movingly recounts her own widowhood--a halting progress toward understanding recurrent grief and an attainment of a hard-won creative outcome. She offers a well-organized and detailed review of research on grief, with 60 vignettes by others who have lost loved ones through death or divorce. It will be of interest to a broad audience, including families and loved ones experiencing problems consoling or advising the bereaved. This well-written work provides accurate and ample information to help us find pattern and significance in the healing process. For those who grieve the aftermath of a suicide, an additional pertinent book is needed: Rita Robinson's Survivors of Suicide ( LJ 9/1/89).
