{"product_id":"religion-and-anthropology-brian-morris-9780521852418","title":"Religion and Anthropology: A Critical Introduction","description":"Focusing on more recent classical ethnographies, this important study provides a critical introduction to the social anthropology of religion. It covers all the major religious traditions that have been studied concretely by anthropologists--Shamanism, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Christianity and its relation to African and Melanesian religions and contemporary Neopaganism. Treating religion as a social institution and not simply as an ideology or symbolic system, the book follows the dual heritage of social anthropology in combining an interpretative approach with sociological analysis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Morris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521852412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521852418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 362\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2006 pg. 2010","brand":"Brian Morris","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44652097077503,"sku":"9780521852418","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f359af5a-a62b-48a7-ba03-75ea678a6065.jpg?v=1704214552","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/religion-and-anthropology-brian-morris-9780521852418","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
