"Resilience" has become something of a buzzword in recent years, especially in the field of member care, but what is it? This book aims to answer this and other important questions. Part 1 evaluates over forty years of resilience research, exploring how the concept has been understood in different contexts and what it looks like in the context of cross-cultural mission. Part 2 reviews methods used for assessing resilience and suggests different means by which it may be enhanced.
