Spirituality & Health Care

This was an interesting book that offered different perspectives of cultures. There were some typos, but they were easily overlooked. The author definitely has the information and experience to qualify this book.

Offering Hope

"Spirituality & Health Care: Reaching toward a Holistic Future" gives a nice theoretical and theological framework to the significance of hope amid illness and pain. Shea's book tries to place spirituality inside the broader context of health care. He advocates patients, health are practitioners, and hospital administrators to deepen their dialogue about the importance of the interplay between spirituality and modern medicine.
