A Reader in the Anthropology of Religion is a collection of some of the most significant classic and contemporary writings on the anthropology of religion. It includes both material whose theme is 'religion' in a straightforward and obvious sense, as well as material that has expanded how we might look at religion - and the horizons of what we mean by 'religion' - linking it to broader questions of culture and politics.

"This volume provides an excellent guide to both the history of the field and new directions of research. Lambek offers insightful commentaries throughout and situates the anthropology of religion in the larger literature of social theory and anthropology, showing how central this set of topics is to the understanding of human societies. In his commentaries and selections, Lambek makes his own position clear, and that position represents some of the best of current thinking in anthropology." John Bowen, Washington University
