field that this book concerns, i.e., the interrelationship be-
tween psychotherapy and theology, the reader will find
pertinent discussions in my two most recent books pub-
lished in English (and in English only), Psychotherapy and
Existentialism

books one chapter explicitly deals with religious issues,
and there are scattered references to this topic as well.

The updated bibliography at the end of this volume
will enable the reader to locate further publications, not
only those dealing with the relationship between religion
and psychiatry but also those covering the whole area of
logotherapeutic teachings and practices.

However, the main thesis propounded in the lecture
entitled "The Unconscious God" remains still valid and
tenable. There is, in fact, a religious sense deeply rooted
in each and every man's unconscious depths. In two of
my books, Man's Search for Meaning and the above-men-

to support my contention that this sense may break
