The research of J.J. Frazer, dedicated to magic and the evolution of religious beliefs, made a huge contribution to the development of folklore and social anthropology. Magic, religion, and science - three stages of human thinking and worldview development, magic is characteristic of archaic primitive societies, in later stages of social development it is replaced by religion, and finally, religious worldview is replaced by scientific. This concept formed the basis of modern science for Frazer and became a kind of foundation for the research of social anthropologists worldwide. The author gathered some of the most important and general conclusions made by him during the research of ancient society and religion. The book is a kind of culmination of J.J. Frazer's scientific research activities. This edition is the first translation into Russian of the work "Man, God, and Immortality".
