Human religious experiences are remarkably uniform; many can be pharmacologically induced. Recent research into the neurology of religious experience has shown that, when worshipping or praying, a certain part of the brain, apparently dormant during other activities, becomes active.

Written in short, accessible chapters, this is a fascinating tour of religious and mystical experiences and their relation to human physiology.
