Summary of Conference on Religion*
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 December 2015
Extract
Dr. Malagon and I have put our heads together and have tried to bring some system out of the discussions of this Conference. Our summary is based not only upon the papers that were presented here but also upon the critiques and comments that were sent in by mail. It is also based upon conversations and informal suggestions made outside of the room or away from the table; so if you find something here that you had not heard about, you must just attribute it to one of these extraneous sources.
