There are valuable chapters that describe the specific thanatology curricula at several different schools; provide techniques for incorporating such topics as cremation, euthanasia, grieving, and near-death experiences into the curriculum; discuss the role of the LPN in caring for the terminally ill and their families; and address the use computer-assisted instruction in death education.
