More about the book
The book delves into the human inclination toward magical thinking, termed the "transcendental temptation," which fosters acceptance of supernatural beliefs despite contrary evidence. Kurtz analyzes Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, revealing psychological and sociological similarities with 19th-century spiritualism and contemporary paranormal beliefs. He covers topics such as mysticism, afterlife beliefs, reincarnation, astrology, and ufology. Ultimately, he advocates for skepticism as a remedy against these transcendental beliefs.
