Pastoral Care and Liberation TheologyAuthor(s): Stephen Pattison\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Cambridge University Press\nISBN-13: 9780521418225, 978-0521418225\nSynopsis\nThis is the first book to show how Latin American liberation theology can be applied to and can transform pastoral care in countries such as Britain and the USA.

Stephen Pattison suggests that much of the suffering endured by individuals is actually socially and politically caused, and so is avoidable if the appropriate action is taken.

Focussing as it does especially on mentally ill people and on women, the book will be of interest to all those who want .
