Book Description
Excerpt from Journal of Religious Psychology, Vol. 7: Including Its Anthropological and Sociological Aspects; November, 1914 I have given this rather lengthy quotation from Max Muller to show his trend of thought. He has had perhaps more to do with the Sacred Books of the Eas than any other West erner and thus has had a good opportunity to form his opinion about their subject-matter. But it is strange how mind can lose itself in the narrow paths of thought unguided by any psychological insight.

Excerpt from Journal of Religious Psychology, 1912, Vol. 5: Including Its Anthropological and Sociological Aspects This abiding influence he called subjective immortality, and held it up in true Thanatopsis fashion as the great incentive to noble living, the mighty motive to admission into the Company of the Saints made perfect by Positivism. A similar view is that of George Eliot, George Meredith, and numerous other writers of note. In his poems entitled Earth and M an, and A Faith on Trial, Meredith constantly exhorts men to live in their offspring and to dismiss forever from their minds the fictitious desire for a personal existence beyond this life. There is no such exist ence. The only immortality to which any man shall ever attain is the immortal mark which his influence makes upon the race in which he has, for a time, lived and moved and had his being.

Book Description
Is religion to blame for deadly conflicts? Should religious behaviour be credited more often for acts of charity and altruism? In what ways are religious and ‘spiritual’ ideas, practices and identities surviving and changing as religion loses its political power in those parts of the world which are experiencing increasing secularization? Written by one of the world’s leading authorities on the psychology of religion and social identity, Psychological Perspectives on Religion and Religiosity offers a comprehensive and multidisciplinary review of a century of research into the origins and consequences of religious belief systems and religious behaviour. The book employs a unique theoretical framework that combines the ‘new’ cognitive-evolutionary psychology of religion, examining the origins of religious ideas, with the ‘old’ psychology of religiosity, which looks at correlates and consequences. It examines a wide range of psychological variables and their relationship with religiosity. It is also provides fresh insights into classical topics in the psychology of religion, such as religious conversion, the relevance of Freud’s ideas about religion and religiosity, the meaning of secularization, and the crucial role women play in religion. The book concludes with the author’s reflections on the future for the psychology of religion as a field. Psychological Perspectives on Religion and Religiosity will be invaluable for academic researchers in psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, economics, and history worldwide. It will also be of great interest to advanced undergraduate students and graduate students across the social sciences.
