In this sweeping narrative that takes us from the Stone Age
to the Information Age, Robert Wright unveils an
astonishing discovery: there is a hidden pattern that the
great monotheistic faiths have followed as they have
evolved. Through the prisms of archaeology, theology, and
evolutionary psychology, Wright's findings overturn basic
assumptions about Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and are
sure to cause controversy. He explains why spirituality has
a role today, and why science, contrary to conventional
wisdom, affirms the validity of the religious quest. And
this previously unrecognized evolutionary logic points not
toward continued religious extremism, but future harmony. Nearly a decade in the making, The Evolution of God is a
breathtaking re-examination of the past, and a visionary
look forward.
