5.0 out of 5 stars Too Much of a Good Thing?, September 4, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Dictionary of Pastoral Care and Counseling (Hardcover)
This a comprehensive and well-written reference work with more than 1200 articles and 1346 pages. For the parish minister or pastor who needs guidance, this book should definitely be on the shelf as a mandatory reference work. For seminarians, it might be overwhelming, but would be a wonderful book to own. For more experienced religious leaders, pastoral counselors and pastoral psychotherapists, however, there is much here that can be gotten more easily and in more sophisticated form from smaller, more specialized books on theology and especially aspects of psychology/psychiatry. Still, it is an admirable piece of scholarship and one that most caregivers will want and use. (Non-religious mental health workers could also use it for working more effectively with religious populations.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful and useful dictionary, April 11, 2000
By 
Trish Roberts (Richmond, IN, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dictionary of Pastoral Care and Counseling (Hardcover)
The Dictionary is useful for readers across a wide spectrum, not only for pastoral carers. Contains concise and practical information. The theological import of each entry is spelled out. Each entry has a bibliography for further reading or cross reference. I found myself browsing at leisure!

5.0 out of 5 stars Soul and Psyche, December 21, 2004
By 
Francis Charet (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Dictionary of Pastoral Care and Counseling (Hardcover)
Anyone who has worked in the area where psychology and religion interface will appreciate this solid, thorough and carefully edited work that is without par in the field. Grounded in the actual experience of the "theology of living documents", the articles are as much practical as theoretical and academic. Thoroughly ecumenical, this massive reference work promotes dialogue between faith and theology and clinical theory and practice. If this is the kind of subject that interests you then you need to own this book.
