About this ebook
To better understand and address the needs of suicide loss survivors and those at risk of suicide, this volume offers a multifaceted, multidisciplinary approach based on the natural and social sciences with the personal and spiritual needs of this vulnerable population in mind.
The volume's twelve chapters are organized in a phased, threefold way that demythologizes suicide; dealing first with the general thrust of the volume's intended purpose, then addressing suicidal ideology specifically among marginalized populations and cultures, and concluding with varied theological resources for further reflection on suicide. While primarily focusing on suicide loss, the volume presents a wider-ranging exploration of suicide in different social, psychological, and literary contexts as well. The contributors and the editors unite in a fervent hope that readers will find something of value to equip them in the ongoing struggle to push back against the darkness and despair of suicide loss.
