This succinct yet comprehensive book written by Margaret Reith and Malcolm Payne combines the authors more than 70 years of social work experience to provide a definitive introduction to social work practice in end-of-life and palliative care.Reith and Payne trace the development of palliative care and the important role of social work within it. The book s unique sociological focus on required practitioner knowledge of death, dying, and bereavement helps balance out the prevalent psychological focus of other books in the field.
