Description

This modern age, so dominated by science, is also the age in which belief in God or an afterlife is more vigorous than ever. In this groundbreaking book, the author, a respected scientist, examines this relationship across time, beginning with the primitive worship of our early ancestors, and concluding with a vivid portrait of faith in the modern world.
