Religious studies draws on work by anthropologists, sociologists, philosophers, theologians, and others for an understanding of its subject matter.

It is therefore essential for any student to be familiar with some, if not most, of these writings. This new Reader introduces students of religion to its most common current perspectives and approaches, and provides them with an understanding of how the discipline developed.
