Recenzii

"Chronic illness has received little attention within the literature of religious studies, and even then it has rarely been explored through interreligious and interdisciplinary lenses. This thoughtful collection of essays makes a significant contribution toward holistic understandings of chronic illness and extends our sense of how this topic might fruitfully intersect with other areas of study." - Debbie Creamer, Interim Dean and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Iliff School of Theology, US
"The strong link between healing and spirituality has long been known in western medicine and eastern philosophy. Yet here the authors bring a fresh perspective with scholarship and compassion to the situations described. Their approach provides practitioners who serve the chronically ill with new ideas and alternatives." - Mary de Chesnay, Professor, Kennesaw State University, US
