<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>From preparing for the death of a loved one to taking care of practical matters to dealing with overwhelming emotions, this most comprehensive guide to grieving, based on the author's experiences as a grief counselor, discusses the issues people face before, during, and after the death of a friend or family member.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Helen Fitzgerald, author of <i>The Grieving Child, </i> has compiled a guide to help readers practically and emotionally grieve the death of loved ones. </b> <p/>No one should be left to grieve alone. Even with the help of friends and family, grieving the death of a loved one can be a complex, sometimes overwhelming, process. <i>The Mourning Handbook</i> is written as a companion to those mourners in need of practical and emotional assistance during the trying times before and after the death of a loved one. <p/>Having counseled thousands of people who have experienced loss, Helen Fitzgerald gives special attention to the complex emotions that can accompany especially traumatic situations, such as when a loved one has been murdered, when there have been multiple deaths, when a body has not been recovered, or when the mourner has been the inadvertent cause of death. <p/>Designed to conform to the special needs of the bereaved, <i>The Mourning Handbook</i> is written and organized in an accessible style punctuated by real stories of people who have experienced every kind of loss. With many subchapters and cross references, it can be consulted for a specific problem or read at length.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Earl A.
