It is not generally known, however, that Nightingale was at the forefront of the religious, philosophical, and scientific though of her time. In a three-volume work that was never published, Nightingale presented her radical spiritual views, motivated by the desire to give those who had turned away from conventional religion an alternative to atheism. In this volume Michael D. Calabria and Janet A. Macrae provide the essence of Nightingale's spiritual philosophy by selecting and reorganizing her best-written treatments. The editors have also provided an introduction and commentary to set the work into a biographical, historical, and philosophical context. This volume illuminates a little-known dimension of Nightingale's personality, bringing forth the ideas that served as the guiding principles of her work. It is also an historical document, presenting the religious issues that were fiercely debated in the second half of the nineteenth century. In Suggestions for Thought, one has the opportunity to experience a great practical mind as it grapples with the most profound questions of human existence. 410 0$aStudies in health, illness, and caregiving. 606 $aEthics 606 $aReligion 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aReligion. 676 $a291 700 $aNightingale$b Florence$f1820-1910.$0472942 701 $aCalabria$b Michael D$01056528 701 $aMacrae$b Janet$f1947-$0965107 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454915403321 996 $aSuggestions for thought$92490960 997 $aUNINA
