The study of patients with neurological disorders allows analysis of the interaction of societal influences, prior conditioning, religious upbringing, and metaphysical understanding of the effects of neurological lesions. This book summarises the literature on the spirituality of these patients, identifies areas for future research, and refines the experimental questions required.
