Description

Commemorating the 100th anniversary of “the most influential book written on religion in the twentieth century,” Routledge will proudly publish a major new edition of William James’s turn of the century classic.
Paving the way for all modern spiritual thought, The Varieties of Religious Experience was revolutionary in its view of religious life as centered not within the Church, but solely within the person. James, a vivid, subtle stylist writing for the skeptical, nonspecialist reader, was the first to define spirituality as “the feelings, acts, and experiences of individual men in their solitude.” In this edition, scholars Taylor and Carrette bring a new understanding to James’s life and his determination, in the cold, scientific face of the Industrial Revolution, to reaffirm the power of individual belief.
One hundred years after its publication James’s work remains even more vital than before. Beyond its influence on the founding of Alcoholics Anonymous, beyond its influence on launching the American pastoral counseling movement, and beyond its role in spawning the psychology of religion, it remains a book that empowers individuals and inspires readers with erudition, insight, and kindness.
No discussion of current religion – from the fundamentalist revival to the New Age movement – is complete without an appreciation of this groundbreaking work.
