One of the book's greatest strengths is the all-encompassing
audience it strives to reach. According to the authors, this is a
book for everyone, and I could not agree more... This is a
remarkably well-written resource. It is easy to use, meaning
information is easily located, easy to read, and informative. While
not intended as an exhaustive resource on spiritual issues at the
end of life, it is a must-have addition to the library of any
member of a palliative care team or clergy. * Doody's *
Anyone who works in palliative care will find this book both
informative and interesting...I thought it was a quite remarkable
book. * IAHPC News *
