Provides an account of the theories of religion of Freud and Jung. The text analyzes Freud's claim that religion is an obsessional neurosis - a psychological illness fuelled by sexual repression and considers Jung's claim that it is the absence of religion, not its presence, which leads to neurosis. 238 pages.
