Thomas Lawson, the essays in Religion as a Human Capacity represent diverse points of view in the study of religion today. Part I, ?Theoretical Studies,? offers a broad range of cognitivist theoretical explorations, while Part II, ?Studies in Religious Behavior,? presents cutting-edge applications of cognitive and other contemporary theories to religious data. This volume celebrates Lawson?s critical contributions to cognitive studies of religion and the degree to which his ultimate goal of scholarship as a search for truth is matched by those who have been his colleagues and been influenced by him. Religion as a Human Capacity will be of interest to all those concerned with theory and method in the academic study of religion 410 0$aStudies in the history of religions ;$v99. 606 $aReligion 615 0$aReligion. 676 $a200 701 $aLawson$b E.
