Crisis grief : the hour of lead -- The work of mourning : assessing the relationship and letting go -- Brutal gifts : loss as a vehicle for growth -- Risk factors : circumstances that complicate -- Stuck in denial : when crisis grief goes awry -- Perennial mourners : when loss has no resolution -- Engulfed mourners : when grief turns to depression -- A death in the family : how parents and children mourn -- Adaptations and therapy -- Creative resolutions : when grief inspires.

Summary: How we cope with grief and come to terms with the death of a loved one shapes our world. In this comprehensive guide to the mourning process, Dr Volkan, a world-recognised authority on grief, shows how each mourning is as individualised as our fingerprints, encoded with our past history of losses. Anecdotal and compassionate, this is a profoundly moving and informative study of how grief and loss shape all our lives.
