Neuroscience and spirituality

Author: Franco Fabbro (edited by)

Neuroscience, philosophy and religious studies question themselves in this text on the foundations of the spiritual experience: the mind, the body, the conscience. With a journey through time and space that starts from ancient Greece, it passes through the origins of Christianity, Jewish culture, Western philosophy, Hindu and Buddhist traditions, and arrives at neuroscience, authors, philosophers (Gabriele De Anna and Salvatore Lavecchia), scholars of biblical sciences (Rinaldo Fabris), scholars of religions and spirituality of the Far East (Fausto Freschi and Gabriele Piana) and neuroscientists (Giovanni Berlucchi, Cristiano Crescentini and Franco Fabbro), make dialogue and intersect in a fruitful way the fundamental concepts of the different philosophical and spiritual systems.
