Natural Reflections: Human Cognition at the Nexus of Science and Religion (The Terry Lectures Series),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In this important and original book, eminent scholar Barbara Herrnstein Smith describes, assesses, and reflects upon a set of contemporary intellectual projects involving science, religion, and human cognition. One, which Smith calls the New Naturalism, is the effort to explain religion on the basis of cognitive science. Another, which she calls the New Natural Theology, is the attempt to reconcile naturalscientific accounts of the world with traditional religious belief. These two projects, she suggests, are in many ways mirror imagesor natural reflectionsof each other.Examining these and related efforts from the perspective of a constructivistpragmatist epistemology, Smith argues that crucial aspects of beliefreligious and otherthat remain elusive or invisible under dominant rationalist and computational models are illuminated by views of human cognition that stress its dynamic, embodied, and interactive features. She also demonstrates how constructivist understandings of the formation and stabilization of knowledgescientific and otheralert us to similarities in the springs of science and religion that are elsewhere seen largely in terms of difference and contrast.In Natural Reflections, Smith develops a sophisticated approach to issues often framed only polemically. Recognizing science and religion as complex, distinct domains of human practice, she also insists on their significant historical connections and cognitive continuities and offers important new modes of engagement with each of them.
