But what if the two are actually deeply connected? And what if science could prove this connection?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom neuroscientist Andrew Newberg, \u003ci\u003eSex, God, and the Brain\u003c\/i\u003e argues that our religious and spiritual experiences derive directly from our sexual being. While others have speculated on a connection between religion and sex, Newberg is the first to demonstrate--with groundbreaking brain scan research gained through Orgasmic Meditation studies--that the underlying biological mechanism of religious, spiritual, and sexual experiences are identical.With research technical enough for academics, but explained simply enough for the everyday reader, \u003ci\u003eSex, God, and the Brain, \u003c\/i\u003e will reframe our understanding of the link between spirituality and sexuality.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew Newberg\u003c\/b\u003e is Director of Research at the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Medical College.
