This book appeals to scholars and students interested in culture and bereavement. Bereavement occurs in a socio-cultural context, which helps to provide an understanding of< ins>how people would cope with grief, accordingly. For example, coping with grief in the context of the workplace would be different than coping with grief in the case of a spousal loss. When compared to competing books, this book’s approach is unique. Topics covered include widowhood, abortion, death anxiety, dying experience, workplace bereavement, resilience, disenfranchised grief,& bsp;and grief rituals. Unlike competing books, culture is given prominence beyond religion, in coping with grief.
