Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Obituary Notices of Eminent Persons: Who Have Died in the United States, for 1858 With much labor and anxiety I have finished the compilation of my volume of Obituary Notices for 1858 - the second of the proposed annual series. I presume I have failed to find notices of many persons who had equal claims for remembrance, and in whom society had equal interest. Until the work becomes more generally known, and friends of deceased persons more careful to furnish notices, I fear my omissions and imperfections will occasion disappointments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death and dying and death-related behavior involve the causes of death and the nature of the actions and emotions surrounding death among the living.

Lay readers will also appreciate the Handbook′s wide-ranging coverage of death-related topics. Recommended for academic, health sciences, and large public libraries." --E-STREAMS Dying is a social as well as physiological phenomenon. Each society characterizes and, consequently, treats death and dying in its own individual ways—ways that differ markedly. These particular patterns of death and dying engender modal cultural responses, and such institutionalized behavior has familiar, economical, educational, religious, and political implications. The Handbook of Death and Dying takes stock of the vast literature in the field of thanatology, arranging and synthesizing what has been an unwieldy body of knowledge into a concise, yet comprehensive reference work. This two-volume handbook will provide direction and momentum to the study of death-related behavior for many years to come.
