Hearing Voices and Other Matters of the Mind: What Mental Abnormalities Can Teach Us About Religions

Co-authored with George Graham

From the publisher:

"Robert McCauley and George Graham emphasize underlying cognitive continuities between familiar features of religiosity, of mental disorders, and of everyday thinking and action. They contend that much religious thought and behavior can be explained as the cultural activation of our natural cognitive systems, which address matters that are essential to human survival: hazard precautions, agency detection, language processing, and theory of mind."
