This unique book discusses the challenging issues in life, death, and dying as it applies to everyone: people who are facing death, those who are coping with dying or with bereavement, those struggling with decisions about euthanasia or who are contemplating suicide, and those who wish to teach children about the place of death in life. The book provides a solid foundation readers can use as they pursue their own insights, emphases, and special interests in this field. The authors illustrate that while we cannot make death disappear from our lives, we can learn from each other, talk about death together, and determine how to live more productive lives in the face of death.

Review:
The tone of the chapters is non-threatening and reassuring. The topic of death and dying is a difficult one that can heighten reader apprehension. The authors appear at ease with these topics and address issues directly without sensationalism or deception...There is a pleasant balance between presenting research findings and describing those experiences/feelings/thoughts that are more difficult to quantify.

The book offers broad, yet in-depth, coverage of relevant topics. Organization of topics is nicely sequenced. Examples are clear and relevant. A wide range of material is presented to illustrate chapter content (e.g., poetry, drawings, photographs, case histories).
