And Mankind Created the Gods

A Graphic Novel Adaptation of Pascal Boyer's Religion Explained
BuchGebunden
368 Seiten
Englisch
These are some of the most fundamental and enduring questions we have about the mysteries of religion, and they may well hold the key to humankind´s future on this earth.In this adaptation of Pascal Boyer´s classic work exploring these concepts, Religion Explained, artist Joseph Béhé harnesses the power of comics to provide clear answers to the basic questions about why religion exists and why people believe.A distinguished scholar, Boyer drew from research in cognitive science, anthropology, psychology, and evolutionary biology to explore why religion exists and why the strength of human beliefs can drive us to be selfless sometimes and, at other times, to be fanatical and intolerant. His erudite book is rich with insight into the endless jumble of ideas that inform religious beliefs and practices across cultures. With detailed, illustrative drawings and carefully adapted prose, Béhé´s graphic novel brings a new perspective to Boyer´s work.An eminently accessible approach to the notoriously thorny topics of belief, cognition, humanity, and religion, And Mankind Created the Gods is a thoughtful, inspiring graphic novel that will further and broaden the conversation with which Boyer´s book engages.mehr
