Abstract
The premise of this book is that religion is an important topic because what goes by the name ‘religion’ is important in the lives of many people, and that religious understandings exist in their own right. They cannot be treated as derived manifestations — the ideological reflexes — of cultural or social phenomena defined at other levels.
