{"product_id":"magic-science-and-religion-bronislaw-malinowski-9781161591316","title":"Magic Science And Religion","description":"Magic Science and Religion is a classic anthropological work by Bronislaw Malinowski, one of the most influential anthropologists of the 20th century. The book explores the relationship between magic, science, and religion in primitive societies, and how these three systems of thought interact and overlap. Malinowski argues that magic is a practical way of dealing with uncertainty and anxiety in everyday life, while science is a more systematic and rational approach to understanding the world. Religion, on the other hand, provides a sense of meaning and purpose to human existence. The book is based on Malinowski's fieldwork in the Trobriand Islands, off the coast of Papua New Guinea, where he lived for several years studying the local culture and language. Magic Science and Religion is a seminal work in the field of anthropology and a must-read for anyone interested in the study of human culture and society.THIS 72 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Science Religion and Reality, by Bronislaw Malinowski.
