| Annotation | This edition is about death and dying. It explores what constitutes a good death; includes the best practice frameworks for palliative care in the UK and Ireland; and looks at older people's attitudes towards dying and the importance of spirituality in the end stages of life. Amongst other topics, a post-death perspective is offered, namely, what the relatives who are left behind do with their loved ones' ashes and the impact this has on the grieving process. (KJ/RH). |
