Description

This volume honors the life work of Charles V. Gerkin, Franklin N. Parker Professor of Pastoral Theology, Emeritus, at Candler School of Theology. Eighteen scholars attempt to determine to what extent current models of care and counseling are adequate for meeting the pastoral needs of society. The contributors address such issues as abortion; child abuse; racism; and conflicts between the sexes, generations, economic classes, ethnic groups, races, and religious and moral cultures. - from Amzon
