Synopsis
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time The Varieties of Religious Experience was an immediate bestseller upon its publication in June 1902. Reflecting the pluralistic views of psychologist turned philosopher William James, it posits that individual religious experiences, rather than the tenets of organized religions, form the backbone of religious life. James's discussion of conversion, repentance, mysticism, and hope of reward and fears of punishment in the hereafter--as well as his observations on the religious experiences of such diverse thinkers as Voltaire, Emerson, Luther, and others--all support his thesis. Walter Houston Clark in Psychology Today deemed it "the most notable of all books in the field of the psychology of religion.", Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time The Varieties of Religious Experience was an immediate bestseller upon its publication in June 1902.

You never know what will show up at Bountiful Goods. From vintage ephemera to modern decor and a whole lot in between. There's always something interesting out back in the barn....or the attic.

    I'm very impressed-I ordered this last Friday and it came on Monday! I also consider this a very good value for (4) storage albums. The seller mentioned some slight damage to one of the albums, but I can probably easily fix that, I appreciate that honesty. Not everyone is always so forthright. Shipping cost was reasonable, and these came exactly as described. And I like that packaging too. Cardboard boxes like that come in handy. Thanks.
