Beyond Silence and Denial: Death and Dying Reconsidered / Edition 1

by Lucy Bregman

Overview

Lucy Bregman guides the reader through the wealth of recent literature on death and dying, giving special attention to the autobiographical narratives of terminally ill people and to books offering counsel to the dying, their caregivers, and the bereaved. She argues that this literature should supplement, not supplant, Christian understandings of death.
