Hostility to Hospitality: Spirituality and Professional Socialization within Medicine
$35.00
Spiritual sickness troubles American medicine.\n\nThrough a death-denying culture, medicine has gained enormous power-an influence it maintains by distancing itself from religion, which too often reminds us of our mortality. As a result of this separation of medicine and religion, patients facing serious illness infrequently receive adequate spiritual care, despite the large body of empirical data demonstrating its import to patient meaning-making, quality of life, and medical utilization. This secular-sacred divide also unleashes depersonalizing, social forces through the market, technology, and legal-bureaucratic powers that reduce clinicians to tiny cogs in an unstoppable machine. Hostility to Hospitality is one of the first books of its kind to explore these hostilities threatening medicine and offer a path forward for the partnership of modern medicine and spirituality. Drawing from interdisciplinary scholarship including empirical studies, interviews, history and sociology, theology, and public policy, the authors argue for structural pluralism as the key to changing hostility to hospitality.Hostility to Hospitality: Spirituality and Professional Socialization within Medicine 1st Edition is written by Michael J. Balboni; Tracy A. Balboni and published by Oxford University Press. ISBNs for Hostility to Hospitality are 9780199325788, 0199325782 and the print ISBNs are 9780199325764, 0199325766.
