Chase has done a truly outstanding job in selecting 700 of the 5000 or more books published in this category since 1970, classifying them by religious tradition (evangelical, liberal, etc.), and offering quite helpful succinct annotations about their usefulness. She divides the books into three categories, with sub-divisions within the categories, covering spiritual psychodynamics; family and developmental issues; and the wider community (disciplining, simple lifestyle, social action). Books are arranged so that different treatments of the same topic are adjacent; there are also good indexes: author, title, and subject. Most of the books are still in print: clear publication information is included. Essential for reference collections.-Library Journal
