Those in the throes of grief will find this work a comforting companion. It reassures the reader that they are not alone, and provides guidance to process bereavement and to reassure that life, though different, can be fulfilling again. Uniquely, it is written to support those mourning for a vast range of reasons and relationships, and includes helpful information for those close to mourners who seek to be supportive. Chapters discuss the language and vocabulary surrounding grief, strategies for moving forward, methods of decompression and acceptance, and how other cultures view and mourn the death of their loved ones.
Richard A. Stack taught for three decades at American University and is an award-winning documentary producer. He volunteers at Washington, D.C.'s leading grief counseling center.
