Publisher's summary

Religion in Human Evolution is a work of extraordinary ambition—a wide-ranging, nuanced probing of our biological past to discover the kinds of lives that human beings have most often imagined were worth living. It offers what is frequently seen as a forbidden theory of the origin of religion that goes deep into evolution, especially but not exclusively cultural evolution.

extremely biased

I had to stop listening when the author, a professor at UC Berkeley during his life, said the only source of information we have about ancient Isreal is the Old Testament BIBLE.
