| Summary/Abstract |
Frazers classic The Golden Bough may justifiably be called the foundation that modern anthropology is based on. While it has been discredited in some areas since its 1st publication, it has stood the test of time remarkably well. Its still the best book known of to explain the origins of magical and religious thought to a new student of comparative religions.
