Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Caring for Dying People of Different Faiths: (Paperback)
this book is quite overpriced for the simplistic content. It serves our purpose for a brief overview of death traditions in different faiths, but could be more insightful, and much, much less expensive. Alert yourself to the fact it is geared toward British care givers.
