Bøger af Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Med Døden og den døende brød psykiateren Elisabeth Kübler-Ross i 1969 den vestlige kulturs tabu omkring døden. Bogen bygger på over 200 samtaler med uhelbredeligt syge, og ved hjælp af sin kendte teori om de fem sorgstadier – fornægtelse, vrede, forhandling, depression og accept – giver forfatteren en dybdegående beskrivelse af, hvor gennemgribende døden påvirker både den døende, sundhedspersonale omkring den døende og den døendes familie. Men samtidig giver forfatteren lindring og ind gyder endda håb til alle, der er involveret, og minder os om, at menneskeligt tab og sorg er en del af vores eksistens. Med denne nyudgivelse, der har fået titlen Døden og den døende – fra fornægtelse til accept, markerer Gads Forlag Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’ store betydning og giver samtidig nye læsere mulighed for at stifte bekendtskab med hendes stadig meget aktuelle og relevante perspektiver på døden og den døendes værdighed. Den danske oversættelse er blevet sprogligt revideret og tilpasset en dansk kontekst.

"I hope a great many will read this book...It does offer insight and understanding so that all those who have contact with the terminally ill can do more to help them"......Journal of the American Medical Association

'On Death and Dying' is one of the most important books ever written on the subject and is still considered the benchmark in the care of the dying. This book is a vital resource for doctors, nurses, members of the clergy, social workers, and lay people dealing with death and dying.

One of the most important psychological studies of the late twentieth century, On Death and Dying grew out of Dr. Elisabeth Kbler-Ross's famous interdisciplinary seminar on death, life, and transition. In this remarkable book, Dr. Kbler-Ross first explored the now-famous five stages of death: denial and isolation, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Through sample interviews and conversations, she gives the reader a better understanding of how imminent death affects the patient, the professionals who serve that patient, and the patient's family, bringing hope to all who are involved.

Bruno Bitterli-F rst was amazed when Elisabeth K bler-Ross first contacted him from the spiritual world. Initially, he disbelieved her authenticity. However, over the course of communicating with her, it became unequivocally clear that this being from the spiritual world was a profound expert on death and dying. A few days prior to this unexpected encounter, Bruno had already decided to embark on another book project. So Elisabeth and Bruno determined to write a book together across the threshold of this world and the world beyond. Soon thereafter, a profound document emerged that shared deep insights about death, Elisabeth's personal experiences in the nonmaterial world, and the collaborative creative process that is possible between the spiritual world and Earth. Their collaborative process culminated in this book with words that both touch deeply and put death in its rightful place - central to life! Bruno Bitterli-F rst initially worked as a woodcraft teacher. At 32, he embarked on an intensive course of study involving collaboration with the spiritual world. He has since been working as a psychic counselor and course leader supporting people to connect to their own inner guidance.

AIDS "None of us is so unique as to be exempt from the human condition." As the numbers of reported AIDS cases continue to climb, and the disease continues to take more and more lives, those who have to deal with the complexities of this problem continue to ask: "How do we care for these terminally ill?" Using letters from patients, questions and answers between patient and doctor, and other compassionate tools, Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, the world's foremost expert on death and dying, shows us how to comfort the seriously ill and help AIDS patients through the critical "stages of dying" She addresses the stigma surrounding AIDS as a "gay disease" and makes a special plea for prisoners with AIDS, for women and children with AIDS, and for babies with AIDS. This remarkable book is warm and informative on one of the most important subjects of our time.
