Suicide

Suicide - Maria Jarosz

"Suicide" is a fascinating analysis of how people respond to new social situations - sometimes with fatal consequences. The book is based on unique information, most of which published for the first time, on suicide among workers, farmers, the intelligentsia, the unemployed, as well as in closed environments: the army and prisons. Maria Jarosz's analysis of self-destructive behaviour has led her to a number of surprising discoveries concerning patterns of social life in different times and cultures. Maria Jarosz, sociologist and full professor at the Institute of Political Studies, Polish Academy of Sciences, has written or edited over 20 books and about 250 research studies and articles published in Poland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Serbia, Croatia, Bulgaria, Spain, Japan, China, the USA, France, Italy, Ukraine and Hungary
