This is the first textbook specifically designed for undergraduate
students which provides the essential background on methods of the
major relevant disciplines. It has been argued that religious
studies is a polymethodic discipline and that the student of
religion should be with the approaches of the major disciplines
concerned with understanding the nature of religion, not least
because the approach adopted has a profound influence on the
phenomena chosen for investigation and the conclusions reached.
Presenting each of the significant approaches to the study of
religion in an informed manner, the book brings together
experienced researchers from each of the major disciplines. It
presents a consistent approach throughout, with each chapter
dealing with the same themes: the historical development of the
approach, the characteristics of the approach, and the issues and
debates.
