Publisher's Synopsis
Helping is not a one-way process. Caring for others, the sick, the dying, the bereaved and the injured, places an enormous strain on helper and helped alike. The latter may feel resentment, anger and frustration; the former may experience self-doubt, failure, guilt and overwork. Ram Dass and Paul Gorman offer guidance on how to recognize and deal with the spiritual, practical and psychological stresses of the caring situation. This is a book for counsellors, community officers and those whose family circumstances have cast them in a caring role.
