   1. Constantinos Zachos studied Physics at the University of Athens and Theology at the University of Thessaloniki. After his studies in Physics, he turned his attention to explore the philosophical and theological meaning of the scientific understanding of the world. In his doctoral thesis he focused on the anthropological conditions of the ecological problem based on the work of St. Maximus the Confessor and the contemporary discussion about the problem. Then his interest shifted to the study of order in which are developed the mental faculties of man (consciousness, attention, memory, intentionality etc.). In this framework, he investigates the dynamics as well as the boundaries of the modern scientific approaches to human self (mind and affect) in relation to the anthropological richness and the ascetic experience of the Orthodox theology.
