• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book actually held my interest from start to finish. Studying the common threads between religion in different cultures was interesting. Its hard to believe this book was not written recently. Of all the required reading Ive had to do in college this book had the greatest effect on me.

William James approaches the topic of this book as philosopher and experimental psychologist. Conversion, repentance, mysticism, hopes of reward and fears of punishment in the hereafter are studied with boldness, sympathy and the unbiased common sense of science.

The result is a book that has become a living force in religious literature and has continued to sustain Jamess fame as one of the worlds greatest philosophers.

If you want a great overview of the religious experience in all its forms and practices, this book is for you.
