Spirituality, Suffering, and Illness

"This book uses real-life clinical examples to provide a nonreligious, practical guide for negotiating the crossroads where spirituality, illness, and healing meet. The first text to consider suffering and spirituality jointly, this holistic assessment tool provides step-by-step guidance to starting conversations about spirituality with patients and their families to encourage healing and alleviate emotional, physical, and/or spiritual suffering."--Jacket.
