Summary:
Do men and women grieve differently? This new text emphasizes that there are many ways to cope with grief. Conventionally, many clinicians emphasize the critical need to share emotions. The text explores ways of coping that are more solitary, cognitive, and active. Such styles are related to, but not determined by, gender. Clinical strategies for assisting masculine grieves as well as contemporary research on gender-related differences in grief are included in this topical new text.
