Handbook for chaplains

"Sometimes chaplains are called on to minister to people of a different faith tradition from their own ... This book outlines eight different faith traditions and offers the principle beliefs of each, as well as pertinent information about each one's views on birth, diet regulations, sickness, and dying and death. Included are appropriate prayers that could be said with patients and their families, along with facts about cremation, autopsies, and organ donation as they apply to the respective faith traditions"--Publisher description.
