Annotation | For Christians, Christmas marks one of the most sacred holy days, being a time of contemplation as well as celebration. The authors reflect on the difficult relations between science and religion, the role of spiritual belief in the older person's mental health, and the evidence that spiritual belief even has an effect on patients with dementia.
