Krankheitsverarbeitung Bei Kindern Und Jugendlichen

This German-language volume deals with how young people come to terms with chronic illness during childhood and adolescence. It looks at the burdens of serious illness, medical procedures and bereavement, and at the ways families work through them.

The book sets the perspectives of parents alongside those of the children themselves. Contributions come from authors in several countries, and the editor presents the subject as one that research has so far neglected.

Psychologists, paediatricians, counsellors and researchers working with families of seriously ill children will find it useful, especially those who read German.
