Book Description

February 15, 2001
A prominent theme in the volume is that symptoms in the bereaved have meaning-making significance, and that meaning reconstruction in response to loss is the central process in grieving. More scientifically oriented readers will find comprehensive discussions of research programs supporting these tenets, particularly those linking grief with respon ses to loss involved in trauma. Practitioners will find clinically informed models and ample case descriptions to bridge concepts with the lived world of real people suffering real losses. All will find new par adigms for approaching loss and reconstruction of meaning in a respect ful, revealing way that has significance both personally and professionally.

5.0 out of 5 stars When I met reconstructionism.., October 7, 2007
This review is from: Meaning Reconstruction & the Experience of Loss (Hardcover)
Love it. It helped me to embark on a whole new journey of processing not just loss and grief, but every other issue that we encounter in life and in psychotherapy. Seeking meaning is the most natural human response to disaster, love, illness, etc. Understanding how the cultural norms and values combine with idiosyncratic, and how this combination defines the outcomes in a person's life - that's immense.
Easy to read, to comprehend, to absorb and to apply.
