Synopsis

Robert Wright presents a sweeping history of monotheistic faiths, tracing their evolution from the Stone Age to the Information Age. Through the lenses of archaeology, theology, and evolutionary psychology, Wright challenges fundamental beliefs about Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. He argues for the continued relevance of spirituality and suggests that science supports the religious quest, pointing towards future harmony rather than extremism.
