Is the world we experience a virtual reality? Why do dreams seem to last for weeks? Why do men and women experience their worlds differently?What really happens when we die?Working with leading medical and mind science experts at Harvard University, Laurence O. McKinney developed clear and effective curricula for schools and the armed forces.When New Age took offices nearby, he met numerous representatives of different world faiths and spiritual beliefs. Suspecting that emerging research in neuroscience might offer insights into themes common to all religious practice and experience, further study revealed new perspec- tives on universal questions of life and death.He entered Harvard Divinity School and in 1994 published the break- through Neurotheology: Virtual Religion in the 21st Century. It has delighted, charmed and comforted thousands worldwide.
