Focusing on the evolution of polytheistic religions, this book employs economic models to analyze religious history through a political economy lens.

The pivotal influence of the priestly class in religious transformations is emphasized, offering insights into the decline of Greco-Roman beliefs and the endurance of Hinduism and Zoroastrianism. This work is ideal for scholars interested in the economics of religion and the development of monotheism.
