Suicide is one of the major causes of violent death in our societies. The fact that adolescents and the elderly are the two population groups with the highest rates of suicide challenges many assumptions of the past regarding human development. By the time they reach their teens, many adolescents lack the necessary skills to deal with stressful events in a healthy life-enhancing way. At the same time, the last stage of human development is not necessarily one in which people feel fulfilled. In this book, Ramón Martínez de Pisón expands the theory of Lazarus and Folkman (1984) for coping with stress in order to show that toxic shame is one of the most important personal and environmental constraints inhibiting one's ability to cope with suicide and suicide-related events in a healthy way.

Hegel's philosophy of religion is a philosophical theology in which God is conceived as a movement of inclusive divine subjectivity - ultimately God inclusive of the world. For Hegel, this inclusive divine subjectivity took the form of a movement of conceptual thought. In an effort to work with Hegel while going beyond him, Experience and Spirit presents God as a movement of inclusive divine subjectivity; however, that movement is understood to be not one of thought but of enriching experience and, thus, of spirit. This argument in favor of a renewed understanding of Hegel's true infinite proceeds in three major steps: first, a consideration of Hegel's own problematic proposal; second, the elaboration of a fuller and more contemporary notion of experience; and, third, three constructive phenomenological and philosophical reflections on basic questions in philosophical theology, namely, the experience of God, speaking about God, and the notions of evil, freedom, and mystery. In the end, Experience and Spirit proposes a philosophy of generosity, both human and divine.
Etudie le concept de l'intendance dans l'oeuvre de Douglas John Hall. Le rapport de l'homme à la nature est ambigu dans la religion et la culture occidentale, l'homme étant souvent présenté en tant que maître de la nature. Cependant l'intendance est préférable au rôle de domination hérité de l'histoire chrétienne, particulièrement dans le contexte actuel.
« Où va la théologie francophone au Canada? Le présent ouvrage veut marquer l’élan, la trajectoire et les mutations de cette théologie, à l’aube du nouveau millénaire. Il donne la parole à des théologiennes et à des théologiens qui, tour à tour, esquissent ici leur parcours personnel en l’inscrivant, d’hier à demain, dans un paysage universitaire, ecclésial et social changeant et pluraliste. Quels que soient les secteurs abordés, nous y découvrons les tâtonnements créateurs, vibrants mais souvent douloureux de cette quête, ainsi que les configurations originales qui ne cessent d’en surgir. De plus, les pratiques théologiques de groupes autres qu’universitaire...
