Abstract
In his Instincts, Archetypes, and Symbols James P. Henry places physiological aspects of religious experience in the context of cultural anthropology and religious philosophy. His approach is Jungian. Of major concern is the liberation of the human mind from privatizations of goodness (privatio boni). Henry characterizes optimal natural conditions for a healthy psyche substantiated by physiological research.
