In this book, Sean J. LaBat provides a critical re-assessment of Anton Boisen's life and work. He demonstrates how the founder of clinical pastoral education and institutional chaplaincy suffered from mental illness, yet was also a visionary who pioneered patient-centered care and reconciled science and religion in his work as a chaplain.
