Title: The Social Context of Pastoral Care: Defining the Life Situation By: George Furniss Format: Paperback Vendor: Westminster John Knox Press Publication Date: 1994 | Weight: 9 ounces ISBN: 0664254365 ISBN-13: 9780664254360 Stock No: WW4254365 |
Because their work focuses primarily on the fields of theology and psychology, pastoral caregivers have often neglected to take into account the social forces that affect both the careseeker and the caregiver. In this groundbreaking book, sociologist and chaplain George Furniss introduces them to a third discipline, sociology, to draw upon in their work. Furniss offers an introduction to sociological approaches that are particularly relevant to those in the field. Brief biographical notes about key figures in sociology and a glossary of terms are supplied to assist those who lack extensive background in sociology.
