Perspectives on a Young Woman's Suicide is a unique and updated
analysis of a diary left behind by "Katie," a young woman who took
her own life. By drawing on clinicians, researchers, survivors of
suicide loss, and those closest to Katie, this book delves into
common beliefs about why people die by suicide and into the
internal worlds of those who do, as well as ethical and moral
questions surrounding those deaths. Several contributors discuss
Katie's suicide from the perspective of recent theories of suicide,
including Joiner's interpersonal theory and Klonsky's three-step
theory. Two contributors who have lost a child to suicide look at
Katie's diary from their perspective, one of whom discusses whether
it is truly possible to prevent suicide. Finally, Katie's sister
reveals her reactions to this project and her ex-boyfriend shares
his account of her death. This book is a vital addition to the
library of any researcher, academic, or professional interested in
suicide and suicide prevention.
