This anthology offers a unique collection of personal accounts of
death, dying and bereavement. It examines representations of death,
dying and bereavement in fiction, poetry, the media and the
Internet, as well as exploring visual representations of death and
dying. Included are: - visual representations of the changing
meaning of death within societies - examples of the ways in which
the Web is being used to give and receive support when people are
dying or when they have been bereaved - the moral, ethical and
emotional issues involved in caring for people at the end-of-life -
lay and professional personal accounts of miscarriage and the death
of family members including children, siblings and parents; suicide
and assisted suicide, the role of humour after someone dies,
intimacy at the end-of-life and the impact of autopsy - reflections
from survivors and people who have been bereaved following
traumatic and mass death and disaster. This highly distinctive book
will be key reading for professionals, students and those involved
in the care of dying and bereaved people.
