*Religions de guérison* examines how several religious movements understand illness, suffering, recovery, and healing within a spiritual framework. Focused on traditions and groups including Christian Science, Antoinism, Scientology, and related healing movements, the work treats healing as both a private belief and a social practice shaped by doctrine, ritual, community authority, and relationships with medicine. Régis Dericquebourg's concise study offers a comparative view of movements that propose religious answers to bodily distress, placing them in dialogue with broader questions about faith and care, along with the boundaries between spiritual practice and therapeutic claims. It is a useful entry point for readers interested in the sociology of religion and alternative healing, along with the ways religious identity can structure experiences of health and recovery.
