End-of-life experiences are often viewed in terms of only one
perspective such as medicine. In this volume, a variety of end-of
life experiences are presented and each case is analyzed from a
variety of disciplinary perspectives. These range across a broad
array of the helping professions, and disciplines such as
information, law and the social sciences.
The book provides a variety of narratives about end-of-life
experiences contributed by members of the Wayne State University
End-of-Life Interdisciplinary Project. Each of the narratives is
then analyzed from several different disciplinary perspectives.
These analyzes illustrate how specific end-of-life narratives can
be viewed from different dimensions and helps students, researchers
and practitioners see the important and varied meanings that
end-of-life experiences have at the level of the individual, the
family, and the community. The narratives include end-of-life
experiences of individuals from a number of diverse
backgrounds.
