Description: "This book is a collection of essays in which it is argued that we need to recover concepts from the distortions of philosophy. The author shows the disastrous consequences for an understanding of religion of the epistemic divides which can be found in contemporary philosophy of religion: divides between belief and practice, the world and God, religious experience and religious contexts. By closing these divides religious significance is given its proper place."--BOOK JACKET.
