As well as death in old age, chapters cover miscarriage, death from road accidents, and talking with children about death. There are also practical chapters which include making a Will; making an Advanced Decision (whether you want to be resuscitated if your heart stops) and other questions we should be aware of. It is a book for adults at any stage.
