Handbook of Bereavement : Theory, Research, and Intervention, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The Handbook of Bereavement constitutes a comprehensive review of scientific knowledge on the consequences of losing a loved person through death.

The volume brings into focus a wide variety of theoretical approaches that have been incorporated into bereavement research.

Physiological changes associated with the mental and physical consequences of bereavement, where significant advances in knowledge have been made, are surveyed.

The phenomenology of grief, distinctions between normal and pathological grief, as well as measurement and assessment techniques, are given detailed coverage.

Chapters document not only detrimental effects to mental and physical health, but a much broader range of consequences associated with loss.

The Handbook of Bereavement brings together an international, interdisciplinary group of scholars to report research and explore key issues on the topic of bereavement.

Focusing on methodologically sound, theoretically oriented, and empirically derived knowledge, the authors provide a structured framework for researchers and practitioners.
