"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."

"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."
