William James (1842-1910) was an American philosopher and psychologist. According to his ideas human conscious can be seen as a separate psychological stream in which thoughts and feelings are never repeated. William James's theories gain recognition due to their originality and selectivity of the ideas.
'The Varieties of Religious Experience' is one of the major books by William James that was compiled out of his lectures that were given in the University Of Edinburgh. This work provides James's ideas about religion and the explanation of it from the point of view of science.
