Asma Narrator: James Anderson Foster Format: mp3 Length: 11 hrs and 19 mins Release date: 12-25-18 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 12 ratings Genres: Science & Religion Publisher's Summary: Stephen Asma argues that, like art, religion has direct access to our emotional lives in ways that science does not. No theorist of religion has failed to notice the importance of emotions in spiritual and ritual life, but truly systematic research has only recently delivered concrete data on the neurology, psychology, and anthropology of the emotional systems. This very recent "affective turn" has begun to map out a powerful territory of embodied cognition. Why We Need Religion incorporates new data from these affective sciences into the philosophy of religion.
