End-Of-Life Stories: Crossing Disciplinary BoundariesDonald E. Gelfand, PhD, Richard Raspa, PhD, Sherylyn H. Briller, PhD, Stephanie Myers Schim, PhD, RN, APRN, CNAA, BC Springer Publishing Company, 2. 5. 2005 - Počet stran: 256 End-of-life experiences are often viewed in terms of only one perspective such as medicine. In this volume, a variety of end-of life experiences are presented and each case is analyzed from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. These range across a broad array of the helping professions, and disciplines such as information, law and the social sciences. The book provides a variety of narratives about end-of-life experiences contributed by members of the Wayne State University End-of-Life Interdisciplinary Project. Each of the narratives is then analyzed from several different disciplinary perspectives. These analyzes illustrate how specific end-of-life narratives can be viewed from different dimensions and helps students, researchers and practitioners see the important and varied meanings that end-of-life experiences have at the level of the individual, the family, and the community. The narratives include end-of-life experiences of individuals from a number of diverse backgrounds. |
