Grudzen’s study of this topic will be published by Edwin Mellen Press in 2007 as Medial Theories about the Body and Soul in the Middle Ages: The First Western Medical Curriculum at Monte Cassino. Grudzen also has recently published a study of the social justice thought of Thomas Merton and Martin Luther King in Across the Rim of Chaos.
Grudzen received a Templeton award for the development of a religion and science curriculum drawing from Christian and Islamic Sources in conjunction with Doctor Shamsur Rahman of Southern University in Bangladesh. Grudzen and Rahman also were able to work together on this project at Oxford University under the direction of John Brooke, Director of the Ian Ramsey Centre for Religion and Science at Oxford University. Grudzen and Rahman then collaborated in the writing of this text, Spirituality and Science: Greek, Judaeo-Christian and Islamic Perspectives.
Grudzen teaches Philosophy and Comparative Religion for San Jose City College and the University of Phoenix in Northern California and online graduate courses in the History of Christianity and Religion and Science for Global Ministries University and serves as Dean of the Master of Theology program.
Grudzen and Rahman are co-chairs of a Spirituality Science project focusing on Health and Healing to be convened in Dhaka, Bangladesh during the first week of January, 2008. Representatives from multiple faith traditions are planning to attend from Europe, the USA and Bangladesh along with medical representatives from Turkey and Thailand as well as Bangladesh.view less
