Now, Aslan takes on a subject even more immense: God, writ large. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith thoughtful, accessible scholarship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as one long and remarkably cohesive attempt to know the divine by giving it human traits and emotions. According to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of nearly every religious tradition. As a result, we bestow upon God not just all that is good in human nature--our compassion, our thirst for justice--but all that is bad in it: our greed, our bigotry, our penchant for violence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMore than just a history, \u003ci\u003eGod \u003c\/i\u003eis an attempt to get to the root of this humanizing impulse in order to develop a more universal spirituality. Whether you believe in one God, many gods, or no god at all, \u003ci\u003eGod: A Human History\u003c\/i\u003e will challenge the way you think about the divine and its role in our everyday lives.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReza Aslan\u003c\/b\u003e is an acclaimed writer and scholar of religions whose books include \u003ci\u003eNo god but God: The Origins, Evolution, and Future of Islam\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eZealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth\u003c\/i\u003e.
