N2  - This book reveals to you the true meaning of Jihad in Islam. Our approach is based on the neurocognitive theory of meaning. This study is my attempt to give snapshots of how a scientific religious interpretation might look if we tried to do that. The whole point of a cognitive approach to religion is to aid us in gaining access to the conceptual network that the religious text is based on so that we can, in some extended sense of the term, understand the way we should understand it.
