"Bruce Kuklick wrote the notes and selected the text for this volume."--Page [v].
Introduction / Jaroslav Pelikan -- The varieties of religious experience -- Chronology -- Note on the text -- Notes -- Index.
Philosopher and psychologist William James championed the value of individual experience with an eloquence and zeal that placed him beside Emerson and Whitman as a classic exponent of American democratic culture. In "The Varieties of Religious Experience" he takes on "the very inner citadel of human life" by focusing on intensely religious individuals from different cultures and eras, in order to explore from within how religion enriches human lives.
