Summary: The Varieties of Religious Experience is considered to be
the classic work in the field. To quote Wikipedia, "James was most
interested in understanding personal religious experience. The
importance of James to the psychology of religion - and to
psychology more generally - is difficult to overstate. He discussed
many essential issues that remain of vital concern today. What
makes James writing so special is that he could take a very complex
subject and, without watering it down, make it understandable to
'the rest of us.'" This is a must listen for anyone interested in
religon and man's search for the spritual. It is written for
laymen, thus easy to understand, but remains penetrating and
brilliant. Editorial Reviews: William James' The Varieties of
Religious Experience is one of the seminal works on natural
theology. Published at the turn of the 20th century, this audiobook
contains James' edited Gifford Lectures. Just over 18 hours, this
audiobook is not for the faint-hearted. However, for those
enthusiasts ready to embark on this scholarly journey, Jim Killavey
brings to life James' words with a serious and intellectual tone.
His diction and pacing are impeccable. Moreover, Killavey is a
natural with James' vernacular. Thus, interested listeners will
find this audiobook incredibly rewarding and important. Critic
Reviews: "Believers and unbelievers (and semi-believers ) will
continue to find in it both a resource and a challenge. Quaint
though some of it may seem at first in language and approach, The
Varities of Religious Experience, can itself become for the
contemporary reader not only an intellectual exercise but a
religious experience." (Jaroslav Jan Pelikan, Sterling Professor of
History Emeritus, Yale University)
