At one time or another, most if not all of us have what might be called a mystical experience, or a moment of ecstasy. This can be triggered off by the sudden apprehension of a beautiful landscape, by love of a person or an object, by the frightening or sublime aspects of a natural phenomenon, or indeed by a multitude of events or states of consciousness which seem to empty the mind of its usual preoccupations or thoughts and fill it instead with short-lived sensations of awe, fulfillment or joy. Most people shrug off such experiences once they have passed; others cling to them and try to repeat and to live by them. This dichotomy in people’s reactions to ecstasy leads to curious and controversial modes of social behavior, and can also be used as a mechanism for manipulating or directing people’s minds. Marghanita Laski published in 1961 a book called Ecstasy which was enthusiastically received and widely discussed. In it she assembled data gathered from a number of individuals on the ecstatic experience, its nature and its triggers. In the present work, she enlarges the scope of her investigation to examine the actual and potential results of a reliance on ecstasy or mystical experience as contrasted with conduct based on reason and analysis. This is very much a book of today, a book for today. It addresses itself wittily and gracefully to problems often subsumed under that cant term, ‘the generation gap’; it weighs the values of ‘the simple life’, the return to nature, as compared to the more sophisticated life of intellectual quest and attainment.

The Red Pencil (1989) examines the many ways in which Soviet censorship interfered in the creative process - in the words of those who experienced it first hand. It helps to identify the ways in which Soviet artistic and intellectual production was shaped by the practices of Soviet censorship. The book goes beyond the simple recounting of banned books and taboo subjects to examine the more subtle issue of how Soviet writers attempted to strike a balance between accommodating the demands of government censorship while retaining for themselves a modicum of unfettered expression and intellectual integrity. Most of the contributing authors were active as writers, critics, editors, film and theatre specialists, or scientists prior to their departure from the Soviet Union in the 1970s.

The essays in this anthology deal with the growing interconnections between moral philosophy and research that draws upon neuroscience, developmental psychology, and evolutionary biology. The essays in this anthology deal with the growing interconnections between moral philosophy and research that draws upon neuroscience, developmental psychology, and evolutionary biology. This cross-disciplinary interchange coincides, not accidentally, with the renewed interest in ethical naturalism. In order to understand the nature and limits of moral reasoning, many new ethical naturalists look to cognitive science for an account of how people actually reason. At the same time, many cognitive scientists have become increasingly interested in moral reasoning as a complex form of human cognition that challenges their theoretical models. The result of this collaborative, and often critical, interchange is an exciting intellectual ferment at the frontiers of research into human mentality.
