The worlds foremost expert on grief and co-author with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross of the iconic On Grief and Grieving explores the search for meaning in the face of life-altering grief and offers a vital guide to healing.

'A brilliant, caring, practical guide to help us understand grief' Daniel J Siegel, M.D.
'Finding Meaning is Kessler’s poignant response to society’s insensitivity, [a] how-to in the very best sense' LA Times

David Kessler – the world's foremost expert on grief and the coauthor with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross of the iconic On Grief and Grieving – journeys beyond the classic five stages to discover a sixth stage: meaning.

David has spent decades teaching about end of life, trauma and grief. And yet his life was upended by the sudden death of his twenty-one-year-old son. How does the grief expert handle such a devastating loss?

In Finding Meaning, Kessler shares his hard-earned wisdom and offers a roadmap to remembering those who have died with more love than pain, how to move forward in a way that honours our loved ones and ultimately transform grief into a more peaceful and hopeful experience.

An inspiring must-read for anyone struggling to figure out how to live after loss.
