Reviews

"""…Dombrowski's contribution disrupts the default ontologies and epistemologies typically assumed in the philosophy of religion. Such a fundamental shift away from classical theism and its heirs underscores the rich fecundity and explanatory power of process thought vis-à-vis religious phenomena. Readers of this journal who may be interested in restructuring the metaphysical underpinnings for the theoretical side of their research methodologies will find Dombrowski's work exemplary."" — Nova Religio ""Process Mysticism is among the most important rigorously philosophical and natural scientific appreciations of religious mysticism since William James's The Varieties of Religious Experience. Dombrowski demonstrates that neoclassical process theology (panentheism) can account for mystical experiences far better than classical theology or atheism (and far better than pantheism)."" — Theodore Walker Jr., coauthor of The Big Bang and God: An Astro-Theology"
