Focusing on the subjective nature of religious experience, this treatise explores the psychological aspects of belief in a transcendent reality, whether conceived as God or a higher spiritual force. Originally presented in the Gifford Lectures at Edinburgh University, it offers a comprehensive overview of the religious imagination, transcending specific creeds and theologies. Its insights remain relevant across various religious contexts, including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and New Age beliefs, making it a timeless study in the psychology of faith.
