This book presents a broad philosophical study of the nature of
spirituality and its relationship to human well-being, addressing
an area of contemporary philosophy that has been largely
underexplored. David McPherson brings together a team of scholars
to examine the importance of specific spiritual practices
(including prayer, contemplation, and ritual observance) and
spiritually informed virtues (such as piety, humility, and
existential gratitude) for 'the good life'. This volume also
considers and exemplifies how philosophy itself, when undertaken as
a humanistic rather than scientistic enterprise, can be a spiritual
exercise and part of a spiritual way of life. Clarifying key
concepts, and engaging with major religious traditions such as
Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Confucianism, this book
will appeal to students and scholars from various disciplines,
including theology, sociology, and psychology, as well as to
philosophers, ethicists, and other readers who are interested in
modern spiritual life.
