AB Throughout  my  research  in  the  realm  of  religious  studies,  I  have  always  felt  drawn  to  that  academia  that  explored  the  ways  in  which  religion  and  spirituality  remain  relevant  in  modern,  secular,  globalized  societies.  In  particular,  the  intersections  between  religion  and  modern  medicine  have  sparked  my  greatest  level  of  interest,  and  in  this  chapter  I  will  offer  an  opportunity  to  explore  several  of  these  intersections,  with  particular  focus  on  how  religion  and  spirituality  most  commonly  manifest  in  a  surgical  setting.  It  should  be  noted  that  this  section  is  by  no  means  exhaustive,  and  I  urge  any  readers  to  explore  the  books  and  peer-reviewed  literature  written  by  those  modern  scholars  of  religion  that  share  my  interests.  In  addition,  I  recognize  the  massive  need  for  additional  research  to  be  conducted  in  this  field  so  that  evidence-based  practice  may  be  employed  with  wide-scale  standards  by  chaplains,  physicians,  nurses,  and  other  health  care  professionals.
