Loyal Rue is a professor of philosophy and religion at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Along with numerous articles and reviews, he is the author of several books, including Amythia, Everybody's Story, and By the Grace of Guile (A New York Times Notable Book).
This book is an important step toward the naturalistic, hence truly
general theory of religion. It harmonizes contemporary scientific
understanding of the origin of human nature with a positive view of
the centrality of religion in culture.--Edward O. Wilson "
university research professor, emeritus, Harvard University"
Loyal Rue has written a bold, scholarly, and gracefully composed
discussion of the complex realtions between the concepts of God and
religion. I learned a great deal from the rich tapestry of facts
that filled the gaps in my understanding of the history of these
ideas and believe that readers will enjoy a similar intellectual
experience.--Jerome Kagan "research Professor of Psychology,
Harvard University"
