Clearly written, well referenced and carefully organized, the book examines the thinking of Freud and Jung and of modern psychiatrists, and also discusses those aspects of death - bereavement visions, euthanasia, grief for a pet and suicide - which are not covered elsewhere.The second edition has enabled the contents to be updated and enlarged. There are five new chapters, including one dealing with the scientific assessment of death: another looks at the psychological insights provided by Shakespeare, whilst a third deals with the beliefs and customs of minority groups - the Bahais, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Quakers, Spiritualists and Seventh-day Adventists. The text is highly accessible and uses case histories to bridge the gap between theory and experience in an novel and creative way.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1 - What is Death?  \u003cp\u003e2 - Western Attitudes to Death.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 - Reincarnation and Rebirth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 - The Cult of The Ancestors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 - African and Afro-caribbean beliefs and Customs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 - Jewish and Muslim Funeral and Mourning Customs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 - The funeral Rites of Christians.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 - New Religions and new Sects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 - The Reburial issue.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 - Freud, Mourning and Death.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 - Jung and Self-realization.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 - Shakespeare, Death and Grief .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 - Dying, The Last Months .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 - Caring for The dying.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 - Bereavement, The Basics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 - Bereavement, Medical and Social Issues.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 - The Death of a Child.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 - A Child's Response to Death.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 - Suicide.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 - Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 - The Death of a pet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e22 - The Bereaved and the Living Dead.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e23 - Near Death Experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e24 - The Significance of death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52502972891416,"sku":"9781861562234","price":47.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781861562234.jpg?v=1786321945","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/death-and-bereavement-psychological-religious-and-cultural-interfaces-paperback-softback-9781861562234","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
