Transdisciplinarity and Consciousness: Toward an Integrated Model
July 1, 2018 Arthur Versluis, B. Nicolescu

The authors argue that scholars who analyze spirituality in dualistic, reductionistic, and materialistic terms commit category errors. They advocate for transdisciplinary approaches to the study of religion and spirituality, proposing a new model for understanding interiority that prefigures a unified approach engaging both quantum physics and the humanities.
