This is the first comprehensive practical work on the care of the terminally ill and their families. Its down-to-earth suggestions will be welcomed by a wide array of health care professions and laypersons alike. Dr Gonda and Dr Ruark have clearly presented the types of complex situations and feelings that occur daily among those involved with dying and grieving patients. Their expertise and gentle advice will go far to humanize an intrinsically frightening and distressing experience for all concerned. Includes discussion of suicide and children's reactions to death.
