Description:

"End-of-life experiences are often viewed in terms of only one perspective such as medicine. In this volume, a variety of end-of-life experiences are presented and each case is analyzed from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. These range across a broad array of the helping professions, and disciplines such as information, law and the social sciences."--BOOK JACKET.
