  A comprehensive study of the subject of health and healing. After an introductory case study from the author's years of working with the mentally and physically disabled, readers are taken on a field trip , a tour of the ancient world into which Jesus was born. We look in detail at Jesus' ministry of healing and at the ministry of the Christian Church within the context of the history of healing through the ages. Two chapters, The Ghost in the Machine and Theodicy: Playing Dice with God , deal respectively with the concept of the Holy Spirit and the theme of the guiltiness of God . The final chapter stresses wholeness within sickness, health within disease and suggests we must unleash our lion-God in all his unpredictable wildness, whether he heals or not.
