The utility of religious belief
The pragmatic thinker, William James (1842–1910) is easily one of the most lucid of philosophers, with a charming and attractive writing style. It is no coincidence his brother, Henry James, is one of the finest novelists of the 20th century. William's most famous book, The Varieties of Religious Experience, is one of the great classic accounts of the subject. Another recommendation is the keen attention shown by James to questions of faith. One of the first modern psychologists, James, unlike the Freudians, recognised the importance of the religious dimension in human life.
