Spiritual James, William: The Varieties of Religious Experience. Version 1.0. 21 Jan. 2008

Gideon · 01-21-2008, 08:34 PM

Well, this is my first crack at sharing my work, I hope you enjoy.

This is William James' seminal work in religious studies (and psychology) "The Varieties of Religious Experience." It's a bit dated, but still brilliant (and I know more than one university that uses this in their capstone courses.) This is the PG version, edited in the style of HarryT for ease of navigation and pleasant interface.

I don't yet have my Sony Reader (arrives in a few days) but I believe this should work fine. Thanks to HarryT for his excellent tutorial, it really helped make sense of the mass that is BookDesigner.

If there are any problems, please let me know by msg or replying here.

(Sorry for the doublepost, managed not to attach the file the first time around)
Thanks!

Interesting. I have already uploaded the same work last September.

There's no harm in having two versions of the same text, but you might want to look at the Ebook index to see whether someone's done it already, if you want to save yourself some work.

I think that yours has a good cover but that mine has restored the italics.

Ah well. Sorry then. I really should have, I suppose. When I started I really wasn't planning on "publishing" just using something that I wanted a copy of to learn with. I really thought James was probably obscure enough that it wouldn't be an issue :chuckles:.

Thanks though... found some excellent Nietzsche scans you did, too. Well done.

I too have fallen into the same logic well with Patricia's excellent postings. (We all need more Voltaire!)
