Why Souls?

In Why Souls? A Mirror to the Universe, author Joshua R. Farris carefully examines some of the best-laid arguments for the soul, ultimately advancing his own, claiming that embracing the concept of the soul allows for a more coherent and satisfying explanation of human consciousness and personal identity. By bringing together philosophical reflection and scientific inquiry to argue that the soul is a vital part of understanding human consciousness, Why Souls?�is a balanced exploration of our ensouled nature and what that means for the universe in which we live.
