Why is the word "soul" present in the sciences of psychiatry and psychology? What does this prefix mean?
Does their subject differ from that of pastoral care?
Is the skepticism of some believers towards psychoanalysis justified?
Why are most psychiatrists and psychologists indifferent to religion or even atheists?
What are the dangers of psychology and religious prejudice?
Do our clergy need further education?
What good will come from the dialogue between these sciences and Orthodox Theology?

These are just a few of the many questions that this book attempts to answer through the review of a rich bibliography. It is intended for those who desire broader information on these issues, for clergy who strive for a more structured pastoral care, for mental health professionals who recognize that religiosity is a fundamental axis of the human soul.
