The
Boisen Book Project:
"The
Boisen Books Project will reintroduce Boisen to a new generation in the 21st
century. As relevant today as when they were first published, Boisen’s three
major books will appear, one-a-year, beginning in Spring 2015, marking the 50th
anniversary of his death in 1965."
This is
great news for all of us in the clinical pastoral field who have been shaped,
guided and inspired by Anton T. Boisen's writings.
No doubt
many have been instrumental in launching this enterprise. At this writing we
know that CPSP's David Roth, PhD and Robert Charles Powell, MD, PhD were a part
of the creation of the Boisen Book Project.
The
website for the project pays tribute to Dr. Powell: "The new editions will
each include a new Introduction by renowned historian of the pastoral care movement
and psychiatrist Robert Charles Powell, MD, PhD, as well as a new foreword and
afterword."
