Review

A book of outstanding value. It offers wise counsel and thoroughly informed understanding to those who have experienced loss and to those who would help them. (Robert S. Weiss, Harvard Medical School)

Beverley Raphael's volume is an invaluable addition to the literature on grieving, mourning, and bereavement. . . . The book, very well written, is filled with clinical reports that illustrate and amplify the more theoretical constructs that she presents. . . . It will be an excellent reference book and a fine introduction to an ever significant field of study. (George H. Pollock, M.D., Ph.D. American Journal of Psychiatry)

This comprehensive and authoritative work springs from Dr. Raphael's long, personal experience in the field as a leading researcher and sensitive therapist. With its many telling vignettes and up-to-date references, it will be welcomed by teachers and students alike. (John Bowlby, The Tavistock Clinic)
