This book remains perhaps the most important book in the field of the psychology of religion since James's "Varieties of Religious Experience. " Review of Religion "This is one of the most profound and important documents of our time . . . it was a good twenty years ahead of its time, and only now is thinking in the field of psychiatry, psychology and religion beginning to catch up with the insight Boisen had in 1936. - O. Hobart Mowrer.
