Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality

This interdisciplinary volume arises out of a series of university events arranged by the Scientific and Medical Network from 2001-3. The Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality project was set up with the support of the John Templeton Foundation in order to examine critical issues at the interface between science, religion and the relatively new field of 'consciousness studies'. The results give a variety of fascinating perspectives on this emerging area. Contributors, representing the fields of physics, neuroscience, psychology, theology and philosophy, include Denis Alexander, Bernard Carr, Chris Clarke, Guy Claxton, Peter Fenwick, David Fontana, John Habgood, Mary Midgley, Ravi Ravindra, Alan Torrance, and Keith Ward.
