Abstract
June Leishman’s book is targeted at GPs, hospice and care home managers, registered nurses, social workers and counsellors. I would expand this further to include students, educators and managers in any discipline. Chapters include the loneliness of dying; developments in end-of-life care; death, dying and the dead body; death and the challenge of ageing; language used; making a case for death education; and death, social change and lifestyle in the UK.
