Media Reviews
Should be required reading for every person, young and old, who has the courage to open his or her mind and explore the biological basis of belief.

-- Sandra Blakeslee, author of The Body Has a Mind of Its Own


Our beliefs are the most precious things we possess. But how do we get them? Newberg and Waldman propose a thoughtful, well-documented, biological hypothesis...[that is] fascinating for believers and nonbelievers alike.

-- Dean Hamer, PhD, geneticist and author of Living with Our Genes and The God Gene
