I received an ARC from Netgalley

This book is difficult to review. I struggled to actually get into this book and DNF it

Not what I was expecting. It felt like bias was already present in the introduction itself, where 'attributes' of the Quran were being presented as facts not of science but of faith and belief, which is very subjective and not at all rational. Kinda felt like this was being shoved down my throat, which totally started me off the wrong foot - like I wasn't allowed to make my own opinion and instead was having a pre-requisite shoved onto me already, as in, this is the angle we're going to follow even though we claim this is entirely scientific so do not deviate at any point (and do not think for yourself outside of this angle/slant).
Needless to say, the whole book didn't sit well based on that very first assumption, which did not lead to an enlightening read at all. Spirituality to me is an open concept, wherein everyone is able to find their own way and form and definition (or lack of one, too), but to be rooted into a specific book that isn't presented in a rational, scientific manner did not lead to helpful discourse.

I found this book a little boring. It was not what I was expecting and for for that reason I find it hard to give it a review.

Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy this book as much as I hoped I would, and I didn't finish the book. I felt that the author made his points well, but despite the many facts and figures presented, I felt that the content was rather dry. I was expecting to read about science in general, but there were large sections dedicated to such such matters as the history of science and even linguistics, which wasn't what I was looking for.

Seeking One's True Spirituality

The author discusses spirituality from the viewpoint that it is the most characteristic, innate human attribute. He discusses spirituality from the standpoint that the activity of one's mind can be considered to have four aspects:
1. Cognition
2. Feelings
3. Consciousness
4. Spirituality

He states that each of these aspects are quite distinguishable from one another, yet, they overlap and interact within the same individual. In this vast book of great research and knowledge, the author discusses the fourth aspect of mind, spirituality, as the main subject. He states that there is no generally agreed upon definition of spirituality, but for the purpose of defining spirituality in this book, he defines it as the quality of being that is predicated on a sense of connection to the supernatural, that is, to something greater than ourselves that is beyond explanation by natural laws.

This is a for anyone desiring to acquire a deeper level of spiritual connectiveness within one's self and the higher being, whether it be the universe, nature or God.
