Some of the work presented (Anthony Petro's for instance, and I believe Sara Moslener's) come from monographs that are in the publication pipeline. Others (mine, Lynne Gerber's, Shreena Gandhi's) are opening forays into our next projects so I am less certain when they will hit publication. There is a different, more sexuality end of the body/health spectrum, publication in the works and Anthony, Lynne, and I are all at least part of the conversations for that (spearheaded by Gillian Frank, Bethany Moreton, and Heather White). But that is a different conversation--it just happens to have some overlap in terms of players.Samira K.

I was strongly tempted to attend this conference, but it came just one week before the Canadian Society for the Study of Religion annual conference, and I can't blow all my conference funding before AAR in San Diego. Sounds like I would've really appreciated the event, though. Had I been involved, I would've brought my work on mindfulness, so that would've added a bit more non-Christian material into the mix. Do you know of any plans to publish the proceedings? I'd certainly like to read a volume of expanded articles on these topics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
