Abstract: Over a decade has passed since the publication of the groundbreaking Handbook of Adolescent Death and Bereavement. Much has transpired since then in terms of theoretical understandings, research advances, and practical experiences. The Handbook appeared in a pre-9/11 world. We know more about complicated bereavement than we did in 1996. This book explores the numerous imaginative conceptual frameworks and models have appeared on the scene: the dual process model for understanding loss, ideas about assumptive worlds, debates about the benefit and harm of grief counseling with the normally bereaved, efforts to bridge the gap separating researchers and practitioners, and stimulating essays about recovery and resilience following bereavement. Additionally, unlike the Handbook, Adolescent Encounters with Death, Bereavement, and Coping emphasizes cultural factors that often significantly the adolescent coping with death. The book is also a research-based text, providing considerable focus in each chapter on peer-reviewed research dealing with the various topics.
