"Moving from the Paleolithic Age to the present, Karen Armstrong details the great lengths to which humankind has gone in order to experience a sacred reality, and examines the diminished impulse toward religion in our own time. Why has God become incredible? Armstrong makes a powerful, convincing argument for drawing on the insights of the past to build a faith that speaks to the needs of our dangerously polarized age"--Cover page [4].
