Death and Dying, Life and Living

Charles A. Corr and Donna M. Corr, authors on death and dying and related topics and former educators, have provided a seventh edition of their undergraduate and graduate level textbook on death, dying, and bereavement. The book also could be used as a supplementary text or as a general resource. In this edition chapters have been revised to address current trends and concerns and photos and images have been extensively revised. Statistical data has been updated also. Subjects covered include: changing attitudes toward death, coping with dying, adolescents and young and middle age adults, legal and moral issues, assisted suicide, the meaning and place of death in life, and recommended selected literature.
