The Psychology of Religion, Fifth Edition: An… by Jr. Hood, Ralph W.

I think it was an ok book. It did have some good chapters and good ideas, but I really felt it was too heavy on Christianity. I also know it got many things about Judaism wrong, which I felt was enough to knock it down from "like" (3 stars) to "ok" (2). They did have a fair amount of things I want to learn more about, such as the Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Religion connection and paranormal/religious experience connection.
