"This book explores the factors that can lead a religious professional either to become depressed or to interact with others in inapporpriate ways. ...
"Damaged professionals damage others. When damaged clergy are linked to damaged systems, the results can be catastrophic. The portrait of these harmed professionals and those they harm is a dark and convoluted one. This book attempts to bring some conceptual and practical clarity to these convolutions using the tools and theoretical frames of dynamic and analytic psychology."
