"This book is a mind opener to many important issues of human
behavior."
-- from the Foreword by James E. Birren
Reminiscence work continues to develop in exciting and
productive ways. In this volume, Webster and Haight along with
multidisciplinary contributors point out ways of improving the
quality of life through the processes of reminiscence. They present
examples of cutting-edge treatments in reminiscence work.
Organized into sections, the book sets the stage with a valuable
review of the literature and then focuses on conceptual issues,
developmental/sociocultural contexts, special populations, and
clinical applications. Topics addressed include: reminiscence and
development in late life, personal identity/social discontinuity,
spiritual reminiscence, story-telling, integrating reminiscence and
life review techniques with therapy, and reminiscence groups for
people with dementia, among them.
"Critical Advances in Reminiscence Work" will help shape the
direction of the field in the future and should be read by every
practitioner, researcher, and senior undergraduate/graduate student
interested in biographical approaches.
