About This Text

The gold-standard resource on the tasks of mourning and evidence-based interventions, connecting theory to practice across settings, cultures, and the lifespan.

"In the fields of death education, research, and counseling/psychology, surely Bill Worden is a giant. ALL of us, personally and professionally, are indebted to [him]. From his work, we may be just a bit wiser, a bit healthier, a bit more competent, and a lot more in touch with meaning for the sake of all who mourn." -Illness, Crisis, & Loss

"[If] you knew Worden's work and his writings previously, you'll find an enhanced book with a much broader and challenging perspective than his previous editions. If you are not familiar with Bill Worden, then it is time to begin." -Ben Wolfe, MEd, LICSW, Fellow in Thanatology, Program Manager and Grief Counselor, St. Mary's Medical Center's Grief Support Center, Duluth, MN
