Neuroscience and the Soul : The Human Person in Philosophy, Science, and Theology, Paperback / softback Book

Neuroscience and the Soul : The Human Person in Philosophy, Science, and Theology Paperback / softback

Edited by Thomas M. Crisp, Steve L. Porter, Gregg A. Ten Elshof

Paperback / softback

Description

It is a widely held belief that human beings are both body and soul, that our immaterial soul is distinct from our material body.

But that traditional idea has been seriously questioned by much recent research in the brain sciences. In Neuroscience and the Soul fourteen distinguished scholars grapple with current debates about the existence and nature of the soul.

Featuring a dialogical format, the book presents state-of-the-art work by leading philosophers and theologians - some arguing for the existence of the soul, others arguing against - and then puts those scholars into conversation with critics of their views.

Bringing philosophy, theology, and neuroscience together in this way brings to light new nuances and significantly advances the ongoing debate over body and soul.
