Bereavement: Reactions, Consequences and Care

Committee for the Study of Health Consequences of the Stress of Bereavement,National Academy of Sciences

The book is well organized, well detailed, and well referenced; it is an invaluable sourcebook for researchers and clinicians working in the area of bereavement. For those with limited knowledge about bereavement, this volume provides an excellent introduction to the field and should be of use to students as well as to professionals, states Contemporary Psychology . The Lancet comments that this book makes good and compelling reading…It was mandated to address three questions: What is known about the health consequences of bereavement? What further research would be important and promising? and, Whether there are preventive interventions that should either be widely adopted or further tested to evaluate their efficacy? The writers have fulfilled this mandate well.
