Here is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary look at current
bereavement care practices and key concerns of care providers.
Covering a broad spectrum of topics, interests, and perspectives
from divergent disciplines and clinical experiences, the
contributing authors explore theories and constructs that can
clarify and be useful in the provision of bereavement
services.Bereavement Care: A New Look at Hospice and Community
Based Services addresses important issues related to the delivery
of bereavement care and services. Chapters focusing on clinical
concerns examine ways to distinguish grief from depression and the
use of Jung s theory to expand an understanding of the grief
process. Others explore options for community-based group
interventions and the role of the volunteer in the provision of
hospice bereavement services. Chapters with a research focus
highlight effective assessment tools, the applicability of Bugen s
model, and the practice and problems involved in hospice
bereavement services.This rich and compassionate volume will be
helpful to mental health professionals, social workers, chaplains,
nursing personnel, and volunteers who work with or provide services
to bereaved persons and families.
First published in 1986, Housebuilding, Planning and Community
Action was written as an examination of the conflicts and tensions
resulting from private sector housing growth in Central Berkshire,
part of Britain’s ‘Silicon Valley’ along the M4 motorway. The
book provides a detailed consideration of the various ‘actors’
and their interactions and explores the fight from Community groups
and parish councils to halt development, in opposition to the
government’s reluctance to discourage economic growth. It focuses
on four groups closely involved in the production, allocation, and
consumption of new housing: speculative housebuilders, local
planning authorities, parish councils, and community/residents’
groups. The motivations and actions of each group are examined, and
the tensions between them are highlighted, set within the context
of central government attitudes towards planning and private
housebuilding. Housebuilding, Planning and Community Action has
lasting relevance for those interested in human geography, and the
history of housebuilding and planning.
