Few experiences stir the emotions & throw a person into crisis as illness does. It affects not only the body but also the spirit & soul. Illness is about life & death fear & hope love & conflict spirit & body. & yet the healthcare system is not structured around these considerations
- our doctors & other medical professionals are not trained to deal with the whole person. Care of the Soul In Medicine" is Moores manifesto about the future of healthcare. In this new vision of care Moore speaks to the importance of healing a person rather than simply treating a body. He gives advice to both healthcare providers & patients for maintaining dignity & humanity. He provides spiritual guidance for dealing with feelings of mortality & threat encouraging patients to not only take an active part in healing but also to view illness as a positive passage to new awareness. While we dont fully understand the extent to which healing depends on attitude it has been shown that healing needs to focus on more than the body. The future of medicine is not only in new technical developments & research discoveries it is also in appreciating the state of soul & spirit in illness. " Care of the Soul In Medicine" is the perfect guide to this powerful holistic approach."
