Dying and Death in Canada is a comprehensive and up-to-date examination of the multifaceted aspects of dying, death, and bereavement from a Canadian perspective. The fourth edition delves into current issues and recent developments in the field, encompassing the implementation of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) and the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This edition introduces new topics such as death doulas, death tourism, psychogenic death, the bonds between the living and the dead, mass death events, cultural diversity, sensitivity, and competence. By combining current research with language aimed at destigmatizing conversations surrounding suicide, this edition fosters a more open and compassionate approach to discussing end-of-life matters. Additionally, new case studies provide personal accounts from doctors, nurses, and family members of the deceased, offering a deeper understanding of the emotional and psychological toll of dying and death.
Exploring the significance of end-of-life experiences, Dying and Death in Canada reveals that how we live influences how we die, and the society and culture in which we reside have a profound influence on our behavior when faced with the inevitability of dying and death. This book serves as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, students, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of dying, death, and bereavement in Canada. By shedding light on the diverse perspectives and experiences of those involved, it contributes to a more informed and empathetic approach to end-of-life care and support.
