On Death and Dying: What the Dying Have to Teach Doctors, Nurses, Clergy and Their Own Families
(Ten years after Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’s death, a commemor...)
Ten years after Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’s death, a commemorative edition with a new introduction and updated resources section of her beloved groundbreaking classic on the five stages of grief. One of the most important psychological studies of the late twentieth century, On Death and Dying grew out of Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’s famous interdisciplinary seminar on death, life, and transition. In this remarkable book, Dr. Kübler-Ross first explored the now-famous five stages of death: denial and isolation, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Through sample interviews and conversations, she gives readers a better understanding of how imminent death affects the patient, the professionals who serve that patient, and the patient's family, bringing hope to all who are involved. This edition includes an elegant, enlightening introduction by Dr. Ira Byock, a prominent palliative care physican and the author of Dying Well.

On Death and Dying: What the Dying have to teach Doctors, Nurses, Clergy and their own Families
( Denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. T...)
Denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. The five stages of grief, first formulated in this hugely influential work forty years ago, are now part of our common understanding of bereavement. The five stages were first identified by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in her work with dying patients at the University of Chicago and were considered phases that all or most people went through, when faced with the prospect of their own death. They are now often accepted as a response to any major life change. However, in spite of these terms being in general use, the subject of death is still surrounded by conventional attitudes and reticence that offer only fragile comfort because they evade the real issues. This groundbreaking book is still relevant – giving a voice to dying people and exploring what impending death means to them, often in their own words. People speak about their experience of dying, their relief in expressing their fear and anger and being able to move forward to a state of acceptance and peace. Ideal for all those with an interest in bereavement or the five stages of grief, this book contains a new extended introduction from Professor Allan Kellehear. This additional chapter re-examines On Death and Dying looking at how it has influenced contemporary thought and practice.

The companion guide to Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's famous workshops on death and dying This remarkable guide to coping with death and dying grew out of Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's realization that she could help larger numbers of terminally ill people directly by meeting with them in groups. The first such meeting in 1970 led to hundreds more throughout the United States and the world and now to Working It Through, a testament to "faith and the ability to survive and transcend the most difficult trials in life" as Kübler-Ross writes in her foreword. The photographer Mal Warshaw has documented the workshops, and his moving photographs bring this already powerful book to life.

Death: The Final Stage of Growth
(Ours is a death-denying society. But death is inevitable,...)
Ours is a death-denying society. But death is inevitable, and we must face the question of how to deal with it. Coming to terms with our own finiteness helps us discover life's true meaning. Why do we treat death as a taboo? What are the sources of our fears? How do we express our grief, and how do we accept the death of a person close to us? How can we prepare for our own death? Drawing on our own and other cultures' views of death and dying, Elisabeth Kübler-Ross provides some illuminating answers to these and other questions. She offers a spectrum of viewpoints, including those of ministers, rabbis, doctors, nurses, and sociologists, and the personal accounts of those near death and of their survivors. Once we come to terms with death as a part of human development, the author shows, death can provide us with a key to the meaning of human existence.

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross is the world's foremost expert on the subjects of death, dying, and the afterlife. Born in 1926 in Switzerland, Kubler-Ross received her M.D. from the University of Zurich in 1957. She practiced general medicine in Switzerland before coming to the United States, where she began working with the dying while teaching psychiatry at the University of Chicago in 1958. Her seminal work, On Death and Dying, first published in 1969, candidly discusses the fear of death and the five stages people go through after they learn they are dying. On Death and Dying was immediately recognized as a landmark book by both professionals and the reading public. The sequel, Questions and Answers on Death and Dying consists of Kubler-Ross's answers to the most frequently asked questions about the care of the dying. And, in the four essays of On Life After Death, she addresses near-death experiences and how to face the death of a parent. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross's other books include Living with Death and Dying, To Live Until We Say Good-Bye, On Children and Death, and Aids: The Ultimate Challenge. --- from book's back cover

(Is this really how I want to live my life? Each one of us...)
Is this really how I want to live my life? Each one of us at some point asks this question. In this, her first book on life and living, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross joins with David Kessler to guide us through the practical and spiritual lessons we need to learn so that we can live life to its fullest in every moment. Many years of working with the dying have shown the authors that certain lessons come up over and over again. Some of these lessons are enormously difficult to master, but even the attempts to understand them can be deeply rewarding.
