The essays in this volume are a wonderful and varied collection of personal insights into individual spiritual awakenings and the resulting transformation in the lives of scientists and academics. Scholars share the experience of their own spiritual awakening and journey, including encountering challenges to their credibility in academia, if they shared these experiences. Their comments about transformation in values, beliefs, and approaches toward life are very moving, expressing a deep inner wisdom and connection, not only with humanity, but with the earth and cosmos.

Marjorie Woollacott, MA, PhD, is a Professor, member of the Institute of Neuroscience, and prior Chair of the Dept. of Human Physiology at the University of Oregon. She taught courses in neuroscience and rehabilitation, as well as complementary medicine and meditation. She is President of the Academy for the Advancement of Post-Materialist Sciences (AAPS), Research Director for the International Association of Near-Death Studies (IANDS), and Co-director of the Galileo Commission. Her current research interests are in meditation, spiritual awakening, end-of-life experiences, and after-death-communication. She has published more than 200 scientific articles and written or co-edited nine books, including Is Consciousness Primary? and Spiritual Awakenings: Scientists and Academics Describe their Experiences. Her latest book, Infinite Awareness (2015) (winner of eight awards, including the 2017 Parapsychological Association Book Award, Eric Hoffer Book Award, and the Nautilus Book Award) pairs Woollacott's research as a neuroscientist with her self-revelations about the mind's spiritual power.

Originally a merchant banker and then a teacher of philosophy and modern languages at Winchester College, he is the author and editor of over a dozen books, including The Spirit of Science, Thinking beyond the Brain, Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality, and, more recently The Protein Crunch (with Jason Drew) and A New Renaissance (edited with Oliver Robinson). His early books on death and near-death experiences, Survival? and Resonant Mind were republished in 2017.
