Synopsis:
In this updated and revised, third edition of his classic text, Worden incorporates his current thinking on bereavement from extensive resea rch, clinical work, and the best of the new literature. Readers will find some refinements and several new areas of discussion. The model for understanding mourning not only includes the four "Tasks of Mourni ng" but his seven "Mediators of Mourning" as well. Important new and expanded materials address special types of losses, including children 's violent deaths; Grief and the Elderly, and Anticipatory Grief. A s eries of vignettes, the best of the first and second editions plus new cases based on Worden's files, offer powerful training tools for the mental health professional.
