Review

"A thoroughly gripping read... [T]o review a book that presents such a range of perspectives on the psychology of spiritual experience is a tough job. I cannot possibly do justice to the complexity and sophistication of the positions on offer."

Author: Jo Nash Source: Human Nature Review

"A fascinating compliation of papers, to which many of the foremost scholars in this field have contributed... [A]nyone who is or should be interested in the new cognitive science of religion cannot leave these papers unread."
