Revue de presse :
“A very important book, clearly explaining non-materialist neuroscience in simple terms appropriate for the lay reader.” (Jeffrey M. Schwartz, MD, Research Psychiatrist, UCLA, author of The Brain Lock and The Mind and the Brain)

“The Spiritual Brain is a wonderful and important book...a necessary read for both the scientist and the religious person.” (Andrew Newberg, M.D. Associate Professor of Radiology and Director of the Center for Spirituality and the Mind at the University of Pennsylvania.and co-author of Why We Believe What We Believe.)

“A refreshing antidote to the arguments offered by some scientists who insist that their minds, and yours, are meaningless illusions.” (Dean Radin, PhD, Senior Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author of The Conscious Universe and Entangled Minds)

“A sweeping critique of the trend to explain away religious experience as a brain artifact, pathology, or evolutionary quirk.” (Publishers Weekly)

In clear, readable prose, avoiding highly technical language, neuroscientist Beauregard argues merely physical explanations for religious experience are insufficient. Recommended.” (Library Journal)

Lends scientific credence to the existence of a higher or universal consciousness. (Booklist (starred review))

Drawing on Beauregard’s own research into religious experiences, a researched case for the nonmaterial—and ultimately spiritual—nature of man. (World Magazine)

Beauregard uses evidence to show that the self or soul is not simply locked inside the skull. (Philadelphia Inquirer)

I heartily advocate the purchase of this book (Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith)

Mario Beauregard and Denyse O’Leary have produced a provocatively titled book covering an equally provocative topic. (Christian's Scholar Review)
Présentation de l'éditeur :

Current scientific philosophy, guided by materialism, argues that religious experience is the product of nothing more than the wiring of the brain. In The Spiritual Brain, Mario Beauregard and Denyse O’Leary, a distinguished neuroscientist and an award-winning writer, argue that this isn’t the case—that some people do contact a reality outside of themselves.
    The authors suggest that we must move toward a non-materialist perspective that can explore and document these types of experiences. Beauregard uses the example of his own fascinating research study in which Montreal nuns were scanned with MRI equipment to show that multiple sections of the brain are involved in religious experiences, not just one “God spot,” as many have claimed.
    Provocative, lively and accessible, The Spiritual Brain is a book for anyone who is religious or spiritual—and for those interested in debate about the existence of a higher consciousness.
