Abstract
Our aim in writing this book was to disseminate both the method and the findings of the sociological autopsy study. We begin this final chapter by summarising what we see as the book’s contribution and then we address the question of suicide prevention, including the ways in which our sociological autopsy study can potentially inform prevention.
