"Religion And Health" by James J. Walsh is a book that looks at how what people believe spiritually can affect their health. It talks about why understanding our duty to something bigger than ourselves impacts how healthy we are in our minds and bodies. The book aims to show how being spiritual and being healthy are connected. The beginning of the book says that even though science is advancing, humans still have a natural need for religion. The author thinks that if people don't have this religious feeling, they might have more mental health problems, like feeling suicidal or becoming insane. Walsh wants to discuss how religion and health affect each other, suggesting that feeling connected to a higher power can make us healthier overall.
