A new biology of religion

"The conflict between science and religion seems to be no closer to resolution today than it was when Darwin published "The origin of species" in the late 19th century. This book finds a way out of that impasse, rejecting both religious doctrines and the model of the mind-as-a-computer that most contemporary critics of religion embrace. It finds common ground between religious practice and modern advances in science, and it presents a case for the centrality of religion as a human practice." -- Book jacket.
