Minds, Brains, Souls and Gods A Conversation on Faith, Psychology and Neuroscience by Malcolm Jeeves

Minds, Brains, Souls and Gods A Conversation on Faith, Psychology and Neuroscience by Malcolm Jeeves

• Do I have a soul?
• How free am I?
• What makes me uniquely human?
• Does my brain have a God spot?

In this hypothetical correspondence with a student, Jeeves argues that we must avoid false choices in the relation between Scripture and science. Christians need not choose between a God of the gaps that competes with science, a neurotheology that bases our understanding of God on the latest scientific theory, or a scientific reductionism that claims to have explained God away as a mere function of the brain. Students encountering the brave new world of neuroscience need not view such research as a threat to the faith. With the wisdom of a seasoned scholar, Jeeves guides us down the road less-traveled--the way of integration.
