Influenced by the writings of William James, this sweeping 1911 survey by a pioneer in the new science of psychology ventures into the uncharted territory of faith. The author’s discussion encompasses the sense of self, conflict, rites and ceremonies, action and passivity, the place of belief, images of the divine, and much more—attempting to explain the conflicts and forces of religion and how they affect thought.
