Superb submitted by Daniel Saltzman on March 15, 2010, 10:21pm If you work in healthcare or volunteer in hospice-care, this is required reading. Covers the stages of the grieving process both from the patient perspective, the family perspective, and the provider perspective. Very informative and practical.
