Additional information
by Linda Goldman (Author)
For decades, Life and Loss has been the book clinicians have relied on for a full and nuanced presentation of the many issues with which grieving children grapple, as well as an honest exploration of the interrelationship between unresolved grief, educational success, and responsible citizenry.
This classic edition, which includes a new preface from the author, brings this exploration firmly into the twenty-first century and makes a convincing case that children's grief is no longer restricted only to loss-identified children. Children's grief is now endemic; it is global. Life and Loss is not just the book mental health professionals need to understand grief in the twenty-first century--it's the book they need to work with grief in a practical and constructive way.
