Helping Grieving People - When Tears Are Not Enough is a handbook for care providers who provide service, support and counseling to those grieving death, illness, and other losses. This book is also an excellent text for academic courses as well as for staff development training. The author addresses grief as it affects a variety of relationships and discusses different intervention and support strategies, always cognizant of individual and cultural differences in the expression and treatment of grief. Jeffreys has established a practical approach to preparing grief care providers through three basic tracks. The first track: Heart - calls for self-discovery, freeing oneself of accumulated loss in order to focus all attention on the griever. Second track: Head - emphasizes understanding the complex and dynamic phenomena of human grief. Third track: Hands - stresses the caregiver's actual intervention, and speaks to lay and professional levels of skill, as well as the various approaches for healing available. Accompanying these three motifs, the Handbook discusses the social and cultural contexts of grief as applied to various populations of grievers as well as the underlying psychological basis of human grief. Throughout the book, Jeffreys presents the role of the caregiver as an Exquisite Witness to the journey of grief and pain of bereaved family and friends, and also to the path taken by dying persons and their families. The second edition of Helping Grieving People remains true to the approach that has been so well received in the original volume. It includes updated research findings and addresses new information and developments in the field of loss, grief and bereavement.

A study of the reform policies in the sphere of higher education in post-Mao China, this work examines the concrete conditions in Chinese universities which gave rise to much social instability within the education system, which was then cast on to the national political scene. It focuses upon the nature of the educational reforms, their impact on the lives of various interests within the universities in China, and the different opportunities that these interests had of articulating their demands, anxieties and fears. It seeks to understand the necessity for, as well as the nature and progress of the reforms in higher education. The book addresses two issues. First, the nature of the pressures and interests arising out of the structure and functioning of higher education in China and post-Mao reforms. Second, the ways in which these pressures and interests have been allowed to be aired in the political system, and with what results. It is thus a study of the levels of participation allowed to different sections of the university population by the authorities. It explores the realm of non-authorized participation by those denied access to the public sphere within and outside the university. While unpacking the process of policy implementation in China, it also studies strategies of overt and covert subversion, tactics of resistance through non-action, and of open opposition by those affected by the reform policy. It points to the political consequences of the failure of institutions and organizations when they are unable or incapable of representing the interests of their membership. It is, in short, a story of a process of recognition of special interests and a demand for a system that will allow for their articulation.
