Publisher Description: Initiation and Pastoral Psychology employs anthropological and interdisciplinary approach to pastoral care and is intended to enhance your interest in and respect for other people's cultures and to equip you with skills of dealing with different ethnic groups and thereby extend your ego boundary and enhance your self knowledge and self identity. In addition the book will increase your insight for pastoral care and counseling of the people who undergo crisis related to rites passages. It is hoped that this work will be of special interest and give additional skills to psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, social workers, pastors and teachers as well as the students of African studies, sociology, social anthropology, theology and anybody who is eager to understand human personality. |
