In this book, Damian Janus examines the connections between
psychopathological phenomena and religion. Janus contends that
there are certain factors—fear of death, desire for power and
longevity, and need for predictability of life and longing for
care—which reside within the framework of religion and mental
disorders. These factors shapethe psychopathological image and
contribute to the genesis of religiosity. He explores this
contention in his analysis of various mental disorders (neuroses,
personality disorders, dissociative disorders, psychoses, eating
disorders) and symptoms (delusions, hallucinations,
self-destructive behaviors), as well as more common psychological
phenomena.This book is recommended for scholars of psychology,
religion, and philosophy as well as psychotherapists.
