What insights can we gain from the rituals, actions and interactions around death and the afterlife? This edited collection offers a multidisciplinary perspective of how individuals and collectives "do" death and interact with the dead.

Kit Ying Lye is currently Senior Lecturer at the Singapore University of Social Sciences.

She is the co-editor of a forthcoming volume titled Reading Violence and Trauma in Asia and the World. Terence Heng is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Liverpool. He is the author of four books, including Visual Methods in the Field (2016), Of Gods, Gifts and Ghosts: Spiritual Places in Urban Spaces (2020), and Diasporas, Weddings and the Trajectories of Ethnicity (2020).
