On Death and Dying: What the Dying Have to Teach Doctors, Nursers, Clergy, and Their Own Families

by Elisabe Kubler Ross

On Death and Dying: What the Dying Have to Teach Doctors, Nursers, Clergy, and Their Own Families Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

One of the most important psychological studies of the late twentieth century, On Death and Dying grew out of Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's famous interdisciplinary seminar on death, life, and transition. In this remarkable book, Dr. Kübler-Ross first explored the now-famous five stages of death: denial and isolation, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Through sample interviews and conversations, she gives the reader a better understanding of how imminent death affects the patient, the professionals who serve that patient, and the patient's family, bringing hope to all who are involved.

Review:

LifeA profound lesson for the living.

Review:

Medical OpinionandReviewOn Death and Dying can help us face, professionally and personally, the end of life.
