The Immortal “I” A Unified Theory
of Eugene B. Shea |
"A nicely put-together synthesis of those elements which can lead
us to happiness. . . Who can refuse it? Who does not need it?
Gerald Kreyche, Ph.D.
Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Philosophy
DePaul University
A seminal book—a profound and comprehensive synthesis of most major
schools of psychology, current neurological research, and a fresh critical
exegesis of the Gospels, affirming Christ's words―exemplified by the lives
and works of scores of His most estimable and most lucid followers―as
the definitive exposition of the Perennial Philosophy.
Based on multidisciplinary systems analyses, the book introduces and
integrates new paradigms of brain, mind, psyche, neurological heart, and
spiritual soul, into a new paradigm—a “working model”―of the person;
a paradigm which yields an explanation of the motivations and behavior
of saints to sociopaths and all of us in between, and a clarification of the
way to a unitive knowledge of God.(Originally published by University Press of America at $46.50)
