ABSTRACT
Although death is inevitable as a human being, talking about or planning for it may be an uncomfortable topic. Recently, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are witnessing an increase in deaths around us as well as globally, and health and social services professionals are more engaged in the death, dying, and bereavement services than ever. Dr. Eyetsemitan's book, Death, Dying, and Bereavement Around the World Theories, Varied Views and Customs, would be a great textbook assisting health and social service professionals and students at both undergraduate and graduate levels to understand the concepts of death, dying, and bereavement across cultures. Additional relevant grief theories/models, diverse views, and customs/rituals in losses and grief provide useful supporting information.
