Reviews

DeRoo’s book makes a genuinely novel contribution to the phenomenological discussion of religious experience. It breaks new ground on multiple levels and will serve as a key text, giving rise to further research and novel ways of engaging the question of religious experience, fundamentally shifting the ground on which discussion about religion is conducted in several disciplines. * Christina M. Gschwandtner; Fordham University *

Gschwandtner; Fordham University * Neal Deroo challenges the ruinous dichotomy between spirit and matter that has bedevilled Western monotheism for centuries. In this timely, robust and scholarly argument, he deploys cutting edge phenomenology in proposing a new understanding of material spirituality. Deroo shows how religion can, at its best, be highly intelligent, engaged and inter-cultural all at once' * Richard Kearney, Charles Seelig Chair of Philosophy at Boston College, USA *
