The Soul in the Brain

"In this study, Michael R. Trimble tackles the interrelationship among brain function, language, art - especially music and poetry - and religion. By examining the breakdown of language in several neuropsychiatric disorders, neuroscientists have identified brain circuits that are involved with metaphor, poetry, music, and religious experiences. Drawing on this body of evidence, Trimble argues that religious experiences and beliefs are explicable biologically and relate to brain function, especially of the nondominant hemisphere."--Jacket.
