      abstract = {"Many have worried that psychology has corrupted American  faith, eroded citizens' virtue, and weakened its community  life. But the social history of three major  psycho-spiritual movements since World War II--Alcoholics  Anonymous, The Salvation Army's outreach to homeless men,  and the "clinical pastoral education" movement finds the  opposite. These groups innovated a practical religious  psychology that nurtured participants' faith, fellowship,  and personal responsibility. This is one of the first works  to have found a positive role for psychology in bolstering  American religious and democratic life. It is also perhaps  the only book in the history of religion and psychology to  base its arguments on the effect of psycho-spiritual  programs on its subjects' actual lives over time"--Provided  by publisher.},
