摘要:""Death, Dying and Social Differences"" addresses the importance of care of dying people in their social context. It focuses on the much neglected area of the social aspects of death and dying. It highlights the key ways that health and social care professionals who provide end of life care can cater for those from a variety of social circumstances and communities. It speaks about best professional practice that can balance the inequalities in society's structures and what that means for the dying and their carers. A first of its kind, the twelve chapters by leaders in their fields, are aimed.
