"This book is overwhelmingly comprehensive and easy to read.. The down-to-earth advice, inspiring quotations nd the way the authors have interwined the physical, psychosocial and spiritual aspects makes this book a valuable resource for any member of a palliative care interdisciplinary team. It could also help lay volunteers develop the gentle insight that is required for hospice and bereavement care. " International Journal of Palliative Nursing, Vol 8, No 3
