Grief and grieving: a guide for the confused

In this podcast, Dr Raj Persaud speaks with Professor Michael Cholbi about the philosophy of grieving as examined in his book Grief: A Philosophical Guide. They discuss the technologies developed to aid people with their suffering and explore various intellectual and philosophical views on grieving. Professor Cholbi also considers how the medicalising of grief may lead people to think of it as an illness rather than a meaningful and inevitable product of life.
