"This is the third book by Karen Armstrong I've read and by far the best, well-researched and wise. If you think you're an atheist, I recommend this book. If you're a theist, I recommend it for its history and insights."
"Fresh perspective on religious practice, without the aggression. If you don't have time to read the whole thing, I highly recommend reading the introduction and epilogue."
