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 \u003ci\u003ePsychology Today\u003c\/i\u003e deemed it “the most notable of all books in the   field of the psychology of religion.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam James\u003c\/b\u003e (1842–1910), brother of writer Henry James, was born in New York and studied medicine at Harvard, where he taught from 1872; James continued on to write books and become one of the most renowned psychologist-philosophers in the Western world.
