Death, Dying, and Bereavement in a Changing World

By Alan R. Kemp

Book Overview

In this introductory text on thanatology, Alan Kemp continues the first edition's trajectory of taking on the central question of mortality: the centrality of death coupled with the denial of death in the human experience. Drawing from the work of Ernest Becker, Death, Dying, and Bereavement in a Changing World provides a multidisciplinary and multidimensional approach to the study of death, putting extra emphasis on the how death takes place in a rapidly changing world.
