The book explores the transmission of religious beliefs as cultural information across generations. Harvey Whitehouse presents a testable theory detailing the creation, propagation, and evolution of religions, focusing on two distinct 'modes of religiosity': imagistic and doctrinal. This framework aims to deepen the understanding of how religions adapt and transform within different contexts, highlighting the dynamic nature of belief systems.
