Religion as human institutions -- Spirituality and mysticism -- Whatis religious experience? -- "By their fruits you will know them" -- The neurosciences' challenge to religious experience -- Caveats and questions -- Mind/brain identity? -- Current naturalistic theories -- The alternative possibility -- Free will? -- The epistemological problem -- The epistemological solution -- Any particular religion? Responses to religious diversity -- A philosophy of religious pluralism -- Pluralism and the religions -- Spirituality for today -- After death? -- Concluding summary.

If you take for granted the widespread assumption of our culture that matter constitutes the totality of reality, this book will challenge that assumption. The pervasive materialist or physicalist presupposition of so much thinking is not scientifically established but is a basic article of naturalistic faith. Professor Hick argues that the widely held belief that consciousness is identicalwith or a by-product of the functioning of the brain is unsustainable. There is non-physical as wellas physical reality. It is entirely possible that there is a divine realm transcending the materialuniverse but encountered in religious experience. He looks carefully at the epistemological implications of this. But Hick also challenges many traditional religious beliefs. He distinguishes betweenreligion as human institutions, which have done as much harm as good in the world, and religion as theinner spiritual response to the Transcendent. Whereas institutional religion has divided humanity, spiritual or mystical experience can unite people of every part of the world. This reissue includes a new preface by the author and a foreword by Beverley Clack.
