About this book
En este libro innovador, J. Anderson Thomson, Jr., MD, y Clare Aukofer, ofrecen un estudio completo pero sucinto de cómo y por qué la mente humana genera la creencia religiosa. Dr. Thomson, un psiquiatra muy respetado con credenciales y práctica en psiquiatría forense y psicología evolutiva, investiga metódicamente los componentes y las causas de las creencias religiosas de la misma manera que cualquier científico investigaría el movimiento de los cuerpos celestes o la evolución de la vida a través del tiempo, es decir, como un fenómeno puramente natural. Proporcionando evidencia convincente de la psicología, las neurociencias cognitivas, y otros campos relacionados, él, y la Sra. Aukofer, presentan un caso convincente de fácil acceso y con carácter excepcional que dios (es) fueron creados por el hombre, y no viceversa. Con este libro de bolsillo, el Dr. Thomson se establece como un pensador de lectura obligatoria y la voz líder en la primacía de la razón y de la ciencia sobre la superstición y la religión.
In this groundbreaking volume, J. Anderson Thomson Jr., MD, and Clare Aukofer offer a succinct yet comprehensive study of how and why the human mind generates religious belief. Dr. Thomson, a highly respected practicing psychiatrist with credentials in forensic psychiatry and evolutionary psychology, methodically investigates the components and causes of religious belief in the same way any scientist would investigate the movement of astronomical bodies or the evolution of life over time—that is, as a purely natural phenomenon. Providing compelling evidence from psychology, the cognitive neurosciences, and related fields, he, with Ms. Aukofer, presents an easily accessible and exceptionally convincing case that god(s) were created by man—not vice versa. With this slim volume, Dr. Thomson establishes himself as a must-read thinker and leading voice on the primacy of reason and science over superstition and religion.
