The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature is a book by the Harvard psychologist and philosopher William James that comprises his edited Gifford Lectures on "Natural Theology" delivered at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland between 1901 and 1902. These lectures concerned the nature of religion and the neglect of science, in James' view, in the academic study of religion. Soon after its publication, the book found its way into the canon of psychology and philosophy, and has remained in print for over a century. (Summary by Wikipedia)

Definitely worth a listen

Lacey's narration is top notch and I highly recommend this podcast to any news junkies or people who simply enjoy good storytelling. The concept is picking up on old news stories, like the success of blackberry, and then following up. Lacey's delivery is very relaxed but it is clear he puts substantial effort into each edition. Subscribe to this podcast and I promise you won't regret it. Also recommend the energy gang podcast that is hosted by Lacey as indispensable for anyone who works in energy or the electric utility industry.
