The book also discusses the social and cultural influences that can impact religious conversion, including family, community, and religious institutions. De Sanctis draws on a wide range of research and case studies to provide a nuanced and multifaceted understanding of the process of religious conversion. Overall, Religious Conversion: A Biopsychological Study is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the complex phenomenon of religious conversion. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of biology, psychology, and religion.1927. This important study in religious psychology is intended to describe the processes by which an individual is converted, leaving aside the problem of grace. After a brief discussion of contemporary religious psychology and its scope and methods, it investigates the causes and the genesis of conversion, analyzes the different types of convert, examines sublimation, as well as the behavior of converts after conversion, and then discusses the possibility of the prediction of conversion in persons immune from insanity or neuropathic disease. It also studies the appearance of religious phenomena in persons who have never experienced these phenomena consciously.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
