Pastoral Diagnosis is the first book-length analysis of pastoral assessment of parishioners presenting problems to be published in the last two decades. A pioneering book, Ramsay's seeks to (1) retrieve the theological and ethical foundations of the Judeo-Christian tradition for pastoral care; (2) develop lines of communication between pastoral theology and the other disciplines of theology; (3) create an ecumenical dialogue on pastoral care; and (4) move beyond the current preoccupation with secular psychotherapy and the other social sciences.
