Notes
"Ian Gentles, editor".
"This book is intended for several audiences: those who work professionally with the dying and the bereaved, those who must cope with the death of someone close to them, and those who wish to reflect on the issues, moral and intellectual, raised by death and bereavement. Two years ago the Anglican Church of Canada published a report by its Taskforce on Human life entitled 'Dying: Considerations Concerning the Passage from Life to Death'. The report has provoked much discussion, to which the present volume is a contribution". -- Preface.

"Death is a fact of life; it's inevitable. Talking about death, knowing what to expect, can lessen our fear of it and can help us to accept its reality and die in peace and dignity when it is time. As His Holiness the Dalai Lama once said, 'As death appears to be inevitable, perhaps we should consider it now'. Christians believe that death is a bridge between this life and the next, but no matter how strong our faith is, we still need help when we are told that we, or one of our loved ones is going to die". -- p. 4.

Notes
"[By] Paul Chidwick".
Includes bibliography, p. 107-109.
"The book was conceived out of a sense of frustration. During my twenty-eight years as a parish priest and teacher in pastoral theology, and the last ten years working with the terminally ill through the parish of St. Mary's and the Hospice of Windsor. I discovered that there was a great deal of misunderstanding about what spirituality involved and who might be called upon to offer spiritual care. The parameters of spiritual care were often limited to things ecclesiastical and circumscribed within the role description of a particular professional group. The main thesis of this book is that our concept of spirituality needs to be broadened, and that this will greatly affect the identity of the caregivers." -- Preface.
Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- What is Spirituality ? -- Spiritual Issues -- The Responsibility to Care -- Phenomenal Experiences: Spiritual, Psychological or Both ? -- Practising Pastoral Care -- Spirituality and the Future of Palliative Care -- Select Bibliography.
Author is a priest in the Anglican Church of Canada. "He is the founder of Hospice of Windsor and has served on many national and provincial palliative-care committees. While acting as chairman of the Primate's Task Force on Human Life he was co-editor of the book 'Dying, Considerations Concerning Passage from Life to Death'." -- back cover.
