The Spiritual Brain: A Neuroscientist's Case for the Existence of the SoulDo spiritual experiences come from God, or from the brain?

Do spiritual experiences come from God, or from the brain? Many scientists cling to the standard view that every cerebral event is triggered by some kind of physical factor. But science is unable to explain intuition, willpower, the "placebo effect" in medicine, or the sense of oneness with all of reality that occurs at times during meditation or prayer.

The Spiritual Brain gets to the real source of mystical experience. Authors Mario Beauregard and Denyse O'Leary explore current studies of spirituality, along with Beauregard's own research with Carmelite nuns. The authors present evidence that religious experiences have a non-physical origin, making a case for the possibility of a scientifically provable God.

Mario Beauregard is associate researcher at the Departments of Psychology and Radiology and the Neuroscience Research Center, Universit de Montr al. His work in neurobiology and spirituality has received international media coverage. Dr. Beauregard was selected by the World Media Net as one of the One Hundred Pioneers of the 21st Century. He lives in Montreal, Canada.

Denyse O'Leary is a Toronto-based freelance journalist who specializes in faith and science issues. Her recent books include Faith@Science and By Design or by Chance? She is also a regular guest on the Canadian television show "Behind the Story," and writes for Islam Online.

"If you have a mind, you will find The Spiritual Brain a refreshing antidote to the strange arguments offered by some scientists who insist that their minds, and yours, are meaningless illusions."

- Dean Radin, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author of The Conscious Universe and Entangled Minds--Booklist (starred review)

Solid Everyday Mouse with a Few Comfort Trade-Offs
I’ve been using this Amazon Basics 2.4 GHz wireless optical mouse as a simple, no-frills option, and overall it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Setup was instant with the USB nano receiver, tracking is accurate, and the wireless connection has been reliable with no dropouts or lag during daily use. It’s lightweight and works well for general browsing and office tasks. Where it falls a bit short for me is ergonomics. Compared to my Logitech mouse, this one doesn’t feel quite as natural or contoured in the hand during longer sessions. It’s by no means uncomfortable, just not as refined in terms of hand fit. That said, for the price and simplicity, it’s a dependable mouse that gets the job done. A solid choice if you want something basic and reliable.

Love it
I’m honestly impressed with this mouse. The Wireless Optical Mouse works exactly as it should—simple, reliable, and smooth. Setup was instant, just plug in the USB receiver and it’s ready to go. No lag or connectivity issues at all. The tracking is precise, and it feels comfortable even after long use. The battery life is solid, and I like that it goes into sleep mode to save power. It’s lightweight but still feels well-built, not cheap. For the price, this is a great value. If you need a dependable wireless mouse without overpaying for unnecessary features, this is a perfect choice.

Awesome quality mouse
Fantastic value. First it feels like a quality mouse and works like a mouse 3-4x the price. It is solid and has nice weight to it, not like some of the flimsy competitors. I am buying another just to have.

Great Mouse
I normally use the Logitech M325c. I've gone through dozens over the years. It works very well, but they seem to wear out fast; the wheel scroll is what fails. I decided to give the Amazon Basics a try. So far, it looks, feels, and functions the same as the Ltech; it doesn't have the fun colors, but if it holds up longer than a year, it's a fair tradeoff. I will revise this review if things change in the future, but as of now, I would recommend the Amazon Basics and will replace the other Ltech's when the time comes.
