NY: Alfred A Knopf, 2009. (USA) Stated first edition. No markings, Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. |Hardcover, 406pp, index, no illus. Armstrong is the author of numerous other books on religious affairs. From the jacket: Moving from the Paleolithic Age to the present, Karen Armstrong details the lengths to which humankind has gone to experience a sacred reality that it called God, Brahman, Nirvana, Allah, or Dao. She examines the diminished impulse toward religion in our own time when a significant number of people either want nothing to do with God or question the efficacy of faith. With her trademark depth of knowledge and profound insight, Armstrong elucidates how the changing world has necessarily altered the importance of religion at both societal and individual levels. And she makes a powerful, convincing argument for structuring a faith that speaks to the needs of our dangerously polarized age. (2.2 JM LVR 205/4. 1st. Hardcover.
