Reviews

Drawing on Hans-Georg Gadamer's analysis of conversation (among other theoretical approaches) and personal experience as director and directee, Ruffing offers thoughts on the narrative dimension of directees' stories and the role of directors in receiving details, discerning implications, and facilitating personal and communal identity via elicited narrative. Two case histories--one of a man, the other of a women--provide concrete illustration. A somewhat dense book; for those involved in the process of spiritual direction.
