Hardback. Although dying can be seen as the paradigm of liminality, because periods of transition are often associated with death, many volumes on death in the social sciences do not specifically address liminality. This book investigates these "ultimate ambiguities" as crucial periods of creativity, change, and emergent aspects of social and religious life. Editor(s): Berger, Peter; Kroesen, Justin. Num Pages: 292 pages. BIC Classification: JHBZ; JHMC. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. .
