       Appendix. Studies on religion and health (by health

520    "The 2001 edition (1st) was a comprehensive review of 
       history, research, and discussions on religion and health 
       through the year 2000. The Appendix listed 1,200 separate 
       quantitative studies on religion and health each rated in 
       quality on 0-10 scale, followed by about 2,000 references 
       and an extensive index for rapid topic identification. The
       2012 edition (2nd) of the Handbook systematically updated 
       the research from 2000 to 2010, with the number of 
       quantitative studies then reaching the thousands. This 
       2022 edition (3rd) is the most scientifically rigorous 
       addition to date, covering the best research published 
       through 2021 with an emphasis on prospective studies and 
       randomized controlled trials. Beginning with a Foreword by
       Dr. Howard K. Koh, former US Assistant Secretary for 
       Health for the Department of Health and Human Services, 
       this nearly 600,000-word volume examines almost every 
       aspect of health, reviewing past and more recent research 
       on the relationship between religion and health outcomes. 
       Furthermore, nearly all of its 34 chapters conclude with 
       clinical and community applications making this text 
       relevant to both health care professionals (physicians, 
       nurses, social workers, rehabilitation therapists, 
       counsellors, psychologists, sociologists, etc.) and clergy
       (community clergy, chaplains, pastoral counsellors, etc.).
       The book's extensive Appendix focuses on the best studies,
       describing each study in a single line, allowing 
       researchers to quickly locate the existing research. It 
       should not be surprising that for Handbook for the past 
       two decades has been the most cited of all references on 
       religion and health"--|cProvided by publisher.
