This volume is directed towards professionals who work in the
fields concerning death and dying. These professionals must
perceive the needs of people with cultural patterns which are
different from the "standard and dominant" patterns in the United
States and Canada. Accordingly, the book includes illustrative
episodes and in-depth presentations of selected "ethnic patterns".;
Each of the "ethnic chapters" is written by an author who shares
the cultural traditions the chapter describes. Other chapters
examine multicultural issues and provide the means for personal
reflection on death and dying. There are also two bibliographic
sections, one general and one geared towards children. The text is
divided into three sections - Cross-Cultural and Personal
perspectives, Dying, Death, and Grief Among Selected Ethnic
Communities, and Reflections and Conclusions.; The book is aimed at
those in the fields of clinical psychology, grief therapy,
sociology, nursing, social and health care work.
