5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable book, 18 Jul 2004
This book is written for adults looking back at their experience of the death of a parent during their childhood and how this has affected them subsequently. I wish this knowledge had been available 35 years ago when my father died and that I might have been helped appropriately at the time rather than struggle over the ensuing years.

It is written in a very readable style. There are a few short questionnaires so that the reader might assess their reactions to the death, and space for notes at the end of each chapter. As the text progresses (and it is a progression rather than repetition) Donna Schurman also reminds the reader of significant points about what has been learnt, and the individual's individuality (!) where appropriate but without the tiresome bullet-point repetition so often found in "self-help" books.

Ms Schuurman also provides notes and an invaluable guide to assessing a particular study's relevance and noteworthiness to the reader.

Just for once, the book's USA origin is not a disadvantage.
