Summary:

"This book records the discussions of a group of religious leaders and medical and behavioral scientists who met for the second in a series of annual academy symposia organized by the Academy of Religion and Mental Health. The theme of the symposium was "Religion in the Developing Personality." The purpose of this book is to preserve as faithfully as possible the atmosphere of the conference itself and the individual character of each participant's contribution, yet to avoid the repetition and occasional verbosity that mark all spontaneous, unrehearsed talk among friends"--Preface.
