Reviews
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the relationship between faith and medicine as it stretches across human existence.
This useful, well-edited anthology of important texts in the history of the intersection of religion and medicine will serve as a valuable resource to future religious leaders, clinicians, and scholars.
An excellent supplement for students which will enhance the narrative of Ferngren's Medicine and Religion. Instructors will be grateful for the care and expertise with which the wide variety of selections has been compiled and informed.
