Description: A critical success in Europe, this book offers a process-based, patient-centred approach to palliative care and a reconsideration of our transition to death. Drawing on decades of work with terminally ill patients and a trove of research into near-death experiences, Monika Renz helps practitioners recognise the changing emotions and symptoms of the patients under their care, enabling them to respond more personally and effectively and with the utmost respect for their patients' dignity.
