Steinbock provides a complete phenomenology of mysticism based in the Abrahamic religious traditions. He relates a broad range of religious experiences, or verticality, to philosophical problems of evidence, selfhood, and otherness. From this philosophical description of vertical experience, Steinbock develops a social and cultural critique in terms of idolatry--as pride, secularism, and fundamentalism--and suggests that contemporary understandings of human experience must come from a fuller, more open view of religious experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47612007710871,"sku":"9780253349347","price":4235.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780253349347.webp?v=1775074299","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/phenomenology-and-mysticism-the-verticality-of-religious-experience-9780253349347","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
