9780716735618: How We Believe: The Search for God in an Age of Science

Synopsis

This text explores what drives us to believe, to have faith, and to create and flock to religions the world over. Throughout, Michael Shermer is interested in the how and why rather than the right or wrong, proving or disproving. This analysis is designed for anyone, whether devout believer or devoted agnostic, spiritual searcher or armchair anthropologist.
