As a multi-perspectival, nuanced, and forward-looking anthology, it combines innovations in clinical practice with theoretical and empirical advancements. The text traces grief in different cultural settings, asking questions about the truth in our interactions with the dead and showing how new cultural developments like social media change the ways we relate to those who have died. Together, the book's four sections encourage practitioners and scholars in both bereavement studies and in other fields to broaden their understanding of the concept of continuing bonds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDennis Klass, PhD, \u003c\/strong\u003e is on the editorial boards of \u003ci\u003eDeath Studies \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eOmega: Journal of Death and Dying\u003c\/i\u003e and is professor emeritus at Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri.
