5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent book, October 5, 2001
This review is from: Traumatic and Nontraumatic Loss and Bereavement: Clinical Theory and Practice (Paperback)
This is an excellent book for anyone interested in clincial theory and practice in working with the bereaved. The diversity of views of bereavement in the various chapters gives a sound, honest sense of the diversity of views in the field of bereavement. Many of the chapters deal with bereavement in the Israeli context, and I think that is a strength. Viewing things from an Israeli context makes it clearer how culture, history, politics, and national sociology are entangled in bereavement and the processes and challenges in treating it. Also, I would say that even though the book is written for professionals and scholars interested in trauma and bereavement, many other readers will find the insights, case studies, and other information of great value.
