Awakening Lotus

by Mal McKissock and Dianne McKissock, Australia

Coping with Grief by Mal McKissock and Dianne McKissock is a small, but powerful book that describes the grief process, what one can expect during one's grief process. The book describes normal grief, managing anniversaries and special dates, physical and emotional reactions, the funeral, gender differences in grief, children and grief, sexuality and grief, consequences of bereavement, support teams, self-help, and community education. It is a self-help manual that offers information that would be useful for those who are facing grief and those who work with them.

Coping with Grief is the best selling book the ABC has ever produced.
