Human beings experience many losses in a lifetime, but the death of a loved one is among the most traumatic. While grieving is a natural part of life, it still challenges our daily existence. The purpose of Death 101: A Workbook for Educating and Healing, 2nd edition is to provide an understanding of dying, death, and bereavement that will assist individuals to cope better with and understand their own death and the death of others. It enables us to examine cultural attitudes and assumptions about dying and death. Death 101, 2nd edition introduces the dying process, grief work, and ethical and legal issues while providing personal insight and sensitivity. The workbook is meant as a supplement to textbooks on dying and death, to accompany the academic material necessary to increase our knowledge about death education. At the same time, it is intended to be an independent method of working through loss, a personal guide for the journey through grief.
Death 101, 2nd edition includes activities that may be used in part or in whole, sequentially or at random, by individuals or a group. Different professionals, including counselors, teachers, clergy, medical personnel, and caregivers, may utilize these activities. The therapeutic exercises in Death 101, 2nd edition will help the lay reader cope effectively with loss and death and allow a more effective life when faced with grief. Scattered throughout the workbook are stories, poems, and comments from others who have traveled through the grieving process.

It is packed. The advice is practical and doable. For all of us who are already too busy, it is a place to jump in and out as specific needs, questions and challenges arise. It is exhaustive in its resources and resource information. There are tasks, activities, quizzes, resources, ideas and thoughts ... with so much more ... to place before the griever either as friend, as counselor, or in the group setting. It comforts, teaches and facilitates. It serves well. I have already freely used its many contributions, and you will do the same. There is a helpful concluding addendum that adds to our day and time, Death and Terrorism. —Rev. Dr. Richard B. Gilbert, BCC, Resources Hotline, Volume 5, Number 16 Each chapter is plainly written and easy to read; in addition, the author presents a variety of activities along the way—questions and answers, word associations, impromptu writings, etc.—designed to give the reader a greater understanding of death and the issues surrounding it. Despite the gravitas of these subjects, by the end of the book, the reader is uplifted not depressed, prepared not confused, and enlightened not frightened about the ramifications of death and dying. This in and of itself is enough to highly recommend Death 101, not only to professional caregivers but also to anyone who wants to come to terms with the inevitable conclusion of life. --Mark Westfield, Online Review, March 2004
