Psychiatry and religion

the long version

"Psychiatry and Religion: The Convergence of Mind and Spirit addresses both the polarities and the unifying concepts between these realms, with a focus on the point at which psychiatry and religion meet.". "Written by clinicians and educators, this book fills a gap in the literature by providing a sociological and cross-cultural perspective of theory and practice at the interface of psychiatry and religion. As more and more psychiatry training programs and medical schools begin to include courses on religion and spirituality, psychiatric educators and practitioners alike will find this book to be a valuable resource."--BOOK JACKET.
