We live in a culture that denies and derides peak spiritual experiences yet this 'macho' mentality only weakens us by cutting off the creative and magical half of ourselves. In this absorbing book Joseph Felser centres his argument around a richly imagined re-interpretation of the biblical story of Eve and shows that it is precisely these peak experiences that allow us to unleash our creative potential and transform our lives. Felser a professor of philosophy argues against what he calls 'Answerism' - the dogma of cultural and religious traditions that retain power by claiming to have all the answers. Instead Felser insists we must like the biblical Eve find the courage to question all that we have been told by the duly established authorities. We must learn to trust ourselves and heed the voice of our own direct experience of life. Felser teaches philosophy at Kingsborough College in New York City is an editorial advisor to the journal Exceptional Human Experience and is the author of numerous articles on religion myth and the paranormal.
