The Routledge Handbook of Religion, Medicine, and Health de Dorothea Lüddeckens

The Routledge Handbook of Religion, Medicine, and Health: Routledge Handbooks in Religion

Editat de Dorothea Lüddeckens, Philipp Hetmanczyk, Pamela E. Klassen, Justin B. Stein
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 noi 2021
The relationships between religion, spirituality, health, biomedical institutions, complementary, and alternative healing systems are widely discussed today. While many of these debates revolve around the biomedical legitimacy of religious modes of healing, the market for them continues to grow. The Routledge Handbook of Religion, Medicine, and Health is an outstanding reference source to the key topics, problems, and debates in this exciting subject and is the first collection of its kind. Comprising over thirty-five chapters by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into five parts:
  • Healing practices with religious roots and frames
  • Religious actors in and around the medical field
  • Organizing infrastructures of religion and medicine: pluralism and competition
  • Boundary-making between religion and medicine
  • Religion and epidemics
Within these sections, central issues, debates and problems are examined, including health and healing, religiosity, spirituality, biomedicine, medicalization, complementary medicine, medical therapy, efficacy, agency, and the nexus of body, mind, and spirit.
The Routledge Handbook of Religion, Medicine, and Health is essential reading for students and researchers in religious studies. The Handbook will also be very useful for those in related fields, such as sociology, anthropology, and medicine.
