Abstract
Inseparable from trust, hope is one of the three radical dimensions of the human being, along with belief and love. In the article, philosophical reflections on the subject of hope are intertwined with scientific research, which shows that, in addition to the anthropology of hope, there is also a physiology of hope, which manifests itself in the situation of illness or even near death. Since the link between hope, physical well-being and healing is evident, it is necessary for health care personnel to be trained in what has been called Hope Inspiring Competence.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
