Religion is an important coping mechanism for many aging adults. Religion, Spirituality, and Aging: A Social Work Perspective discusses the latest research and the issues of the aging soul while examining ways to improve care. Respected social work researchers and scholars provide insight and practical methods for fostering positive aging while also considering how spirituality and religion can affect practitioners themselves. The full range of advantages and ethical implications are discussed in clear detail from a social work viewpoint. Case studies plainly affirm the positive impact that the inclusion of spirituality and religion in an aging person's life may have on their physical and mental welfare. This remarkable compilation is extensively referenced and includes helpful figures and tables to clearly illustrate data and ideas.
