All men and women have access to the knowledge that all senses are able to provide. Both men and women can profit from healing touch physically and spiritually, and both are vulnerable and can be hurt by transgressive touch (Prof. Karlijn Demasure, Healing and the Forbidden Touch: A Reflection on Selected Scripture Stories, p. 78).

We are happy to share with you the publication of a new article by Prof. Demasure: "Healing and the Forbidden Touch: A Reflection on Selected Scripture Stories", included in the book "Therapeutic Touch. Research, Practice and Ethics", edit. by M. Rovers, J. Malette and M. Guiguis-Younger, University of Ottawa Press, 2017, pp. 69-82.
