URBAN HOPE AND SPIRITUAL HEALTH - THE ADOLESCENT VOICE By Leslie J. Francis and Mandy Robbins Published by Epworth Press 280 pages Price 17.99
Books of analysis and statistics are often seen but not read. This book deserves to be an exception to that rule. It contains evidence collected from more than 30,000 young people - 51 per cent male and 49 per cent female, 53 per cent in Year 9 and 47 per cent in Year 10 - making this tome useful to anyone wanting to identify the spiritual health of young people in England and Wales today. The structure of the book is excellent: the theory of researcher John Fisher's conceptualisation of spiritual health, the model used for the analysis here, is explained in terms of four domains - personal, communal, environmental and transcendental - followed by chapters describing the findings with tables of statistics stored neatly at the back.
