<P>Subsequent siblings, who are sometimes referred to as replacement children, were born after the death of a brother or sister. Their experiences are often unspoken; little has been written about them or from their perspective. This self-help, psychology non-fiction book breaks new ground by assembling rich and heartfelt life stories from a diverse group of subsequent siblings while also weaving in clinical literature and discussion. It is based upon over a hundred subsequent sibling interviews, which, to the authors¿ knowledge, comprise the largest and most diverse sample to date of subsequent siblings. Through the subjects¿ engaging narratives the reader can understand and empathize with some of the common obstacles and repercussions of the subsequent sibling role. Additional testimonies from parents and surviving siblings give the reader a clear vantage point of the complex and multilayered impacts of loss upon a family system.</P><P>Those who are born after the death of a sibling
