Santa Cruz (Agenzia Fides) – Pastoral Health of the Archdiocese of Santa Cruz (Bolivia) has recently published the first Dictionary for Health Pastoral Care and Bioethics in Spanish, with over 200 entries. The work has been carried out, as with other major dictionaries, by a large number of specialists (from 120 different countries), representatives of different sectors, as well as by various figures from the cultural and pastoral world. This work has the great merit of making headway into a world, that of theology, pastoral health care, and life ethics, in which there are still many areas to explore. This is an initiative of Saint Paul Books and the Center for Humanizing Health of the religious order of Camillians in Spain. (AP) (Agenzia Fides 11/11/2009)
