- Summary:
- "A 'flip,' writes Jeffrey J. Kripal, is 'a reversal of perspective,' 'a new real,' often born of an extreme, life-changing experience. The flip is Jeffrey J. Kripal's ambitious, visionary program for unifying the sciences and the humanities to expand our minds, open our hearts, and negotiate a peaceful resolution to the culture wars. Combining accounts of rationalists' spiritual awakenings and consciousness explorations by philosophers, neuroscientists, and mystics within a framework of the history of science and religion, Kripal compellingly signals a path to mending our fractured world"-- Provided by publisher.
