5.0 out of 5 stars Special, Well-focused, November 9, 1999

This review is from: Men and Grief: A Guide for Men Surviving the Death of a Loved One : A Resource for Caregivers and Mental Health Professional (Paperback)

I found this book vitally helpful in understanding the unexpected differences in the ways men grieve a loss--myself, as an example--but it also helped me powerfully in dealing with grieving male friends. It comes in chapters that allow selective reading. But it's very well written, and once you start, you'll want to go on. I strongly recommend this book.

This review is from: Men and Grief: A Guide for Men Surviving the Death of a Loved One : A Resource for Caregivers and Mental Health Professional (Paperback)

I read this book when it was first published in 1991. Since then the topic has been developed and more valuble resources are available including Golden's "Swallowed by a Snake: The Gift of the Masculine Side of Healing."

This review is from: Men and Grief: A Guide for Men Surviving the Death of a Loved One : A Resource for Caregivers and Mental Health Professional (Paperback)

Though it is written from a womans view, the author did a pretty good job. I bought the book for my father because my mother just passed away... he hasn't gone through the book yet so I started reading it. A lot of the things in the book don't pretain to him and he isn't going through what others in the book have gone through. But the book is pretty good.
