Publisher's Synopsis

The Study of Religion by Morris Jastrow is a comprehensive exploration of the nature and function of religion. The book is divided into three main sections: the first section introduces the various ways in which religion has been studied throughout history, including the methods of anthropology, psychology, sociology, and theology. The second section delves into the various aspects of religion, including its beliefs, rituals, and practices, as well as its role in society and culture. The final section examines the relationship between religion and other aspects of human life, such as politics, economics, and science.Throughout the book, Jastrow provides both historical and contemporary examples to illustrate the various concepts and ideas he discusses. He also offers critical analysis and evaluation of the various approaches to the study of religion, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses.Overall, The Study of Religion is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complex and multifaceted nature of religion, and the ways in which it shapes human experience and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
