Beschreibung
Are humans composed of a body and a nonmaterial mind or soul, or are we purely physical beings? In this clear and concise book, Nancey Murphy argues for a physicalist account, but one that does not diminish traditional views of humans as rational, moral, and capable of relating to God. This position is motivated by developments not only in science and philosophy, but also by biblical studies and Christian theology. Murphy addresses the questions of human uniqueness, religious experience, and personal identity before and after bodily resurrection.
