Grief Works: Stories of Life, Death and Surviving von Julia Samuel
An insightful and compelling small book dealing with the subject of grief, a frequently misunderstood and difficult concept in the modern world. This is Julie Samuel’s first book. Following book about times for change is also worthwhile reading. It makes a good companion volume to this book. Essentially the format remains the same throughout, with case studies followed by professional reflections. The end of the book is rounded out by conclusions, recommendations, and a very brief history of mourning in the United Kingdom. Not only is this insightful and instructive, but it does belie and express a remarkable degree of compassion on behalf of the author. Whilst this may be a book that could be perceived to be turned to at certain stages of our lives, I think it’s a book that all of us should read, wherever they are in their life. Recommended.… (mehr)
A really good introduction into the management of change, why it causes discomfort and pain and what we can learn from it. This book tackles a wide diversity of individuals, situations, and problem. Adroitly handled, Julia Samuel is very empathic and understanding and clearly can get the best from her clients. She has an impressive understanding of cognitive structures that are maladaptive and an ability to illuminate those to her clients. Well worth a read.
A collection of short case studies from a grief psychotherapist, Each chapter has a few case studies linked by a similar theme (death of a partner, death of a child, facing your own death etc) and has reflections at the end of the chapter.
Grief Works is a compassionate guide that will inform and engage anyone who is grieving, from the 'expected' death of a parent to the sudden unexpected death of a small child, and provide clear advice for those seeking to comfort the bereaved.
