The Evolution of God
RECOMMENDED
by Robert Wright
In this sweeping, dazzling journey through history, Robert Wright unveils a discovery of crucial importance to the present moment: there is a pattern in the evolution of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and a “hidden code” in their scriptures. Through the prisms of archeology, theology, anthropology, and evolutionary psychology, Wright repeatedly overturns conventional wisdom to show how and why religion can strengthen the social order—even in an age of globalization—and explains why modern science is not only compatible with religion, but actively affirms the validity of the religious quest.
Categories: Further Reading, Paleolithic BeginningsVast in scope and thrilling in ambition, The Evolution of God brilliantly alters our understanding of God and where He came from—and where He and we are going next.
