About the Book

This volume explores the Cognitive Psychology of Religion, also known as the Cognitive Science of Religion, as an interdisciplinary field devoted to the study of religious thought and behaviour through the lens of the cognitive sciences. Bringing psychological, philosophical, theological, and neuroscientific perspectives into dialogue, it examines the mind, consciousness, religious experience, and the human relationship with the transcendent.

The book presents contemporary approaches to the Psychology of Religion and highlights the value of scholarly, clear-minded, and critical inquiry. Rather than setting scientific investigation and religious faith in opposition, it considers the cognitive and psychological dimensions of religious thought and experience.
