Description
Résumé:A strong case can be developed for the inclusion of the clergyman as an integral rather than peripheral part of the health team, a role he is far from fulfilling at this time. With the prevailing enormous amount of psychiatric and psychosomatic disorder for which we have no specific medical cures, we should turn for help to specialists in the "whole person." The clergy should face the fact that health is and always has been one fundamental pillar of religion. Many potential contributions from the field of religion and many roles for the clergy are described.
