Here is an excellent new book packed with state-of-the-art
information on thanatology. It presents valuable insights on the
history, current issues, and future directions for the modern death
movement. This comprehensive volume is unique in that it offers
multiple perspectives on the issues and problems facing the
thanatology movement in the United States from well-known experts
in a variety of fields, including nursing, psychology, death
education, medicine, ethics, and suicide prevention. By crossing
disciplinary boundaries, these authoritative contributors are able
to critically examine the entire thanatological community and
provide glimpses of an agenda for the 1990s. The Thanatology
Community and the Needs of the Movement provides valuable insights
on important issues in the field such as: ethical concerns in
thanatology setting standards for the field of thanatology advocacy
and empowerment for the dying, the bereaved, and their caregivers
effective approaches to death education for professionals and for
the public sector suicide prevention Individual chapters address
such pertinent topics as educational needs in thanatology, the
undervaluation of caregiving, policy legislation for issues facing
the terminally ill or bereaved, and the care of children facing
death. This groundbreaking book gives death educators, academic
nurses, clergy, divinity school faculty, and academic and clinical
psychologists the keys to advancing scholarship and practice in the
field of thanatology. Its interdisciplinary focus facilitates
better cooperation between academics and practitioners to
ultimately enhance all services for the dying and bereaved.
