This novel, cross-disciplinary collection explains how dying, death, and grieving have changed in America, for better or worse, since the turn of the millennium. * Shows how high health care costs; concern for the environment; and a diverse, aging population necessitate rethinking the care of those who are at the end of life * Discusses controversial topics such as extending life versus quality of life and the politics and laws governing assisted suicide and integrating our final resting place into the urban landscape * Addresses the effects of the Internet and social media on customs surrounding dying and mourning * Includes cross-disciplinary insights from fields as diverse as psychology, religion, medicine, law, and popular culture |
