Spirituality in Higher Education

This volume, while not attempting to be a comprehensive guidebook, offers an examination of spirituality in the academy through a number of venues. It begins with a look at the myriad definitions of spirituality and also considers legal issues surrounding the inclusion of spirituality in higher education settings. It then examines the importance of the search for truth, provides multiple contexts for spirituality inside and outside the classroom in both sectarian and secular institutions, discusses biological/physiological foundations, offers perspectives on the attributes and impact of spiritual leadership, and closes with cautionary notes.
