Caring for Dying People of Different Faiths

Now in its third edition Caring for Dying People of Different Faiths covers the practical and ethical issues surrounding caring for people with different faiths. It outlines the various cultures of Jewish, Islamic, Hindu and Buddhism which are of relevance to health and healthcare and gives practice advice on providing care in a culturally appropriate manner. Considerably expanded and now including a new chapter on Humanism, it will be essential reading for all healthcare professionals, including doctors and nurses, and other hospital and hospice staff treating people with different faiths.
