About the book
"Engaging with leading figures from the history of anthropology, sociology, psychology, philosophy, and theology, the author traces the study of religion back to the sixteenth century. He reveals how the discipline evolved in response to great cultural conflicts and major historical events, such as the discovery of prehistoric cultures in the caves and ruins of Neolithic Europe and the colonial encounter with the "higher" civilizations of India and China. He also examines the influence of inner experience, tackling issues such as human survival and wish-fulfillment." --Book Jacket.
