Reviews
"Tomer is to be congratulated for his initiative. He and his colleagues have begun the research that will eventually lead to the development of a predictive model. As I note in more detail, his initial model had to be seriously refined; and it will need more refinement. However, what is most important is that the initial conceptual design has begun. As more research is undertaken, the model will become better articulated and its predictive power more definitive...the text provides a good discussion of hospice care and geriatric counseling. Hospice provides a viable alternative to hospital care. However, as the author points out, financing and length of care are major concerns." -- Contemporary Psychology, APA Review of Books, 2003, Vol. 48, No.2
