A Fine first Printing of the First Edition in a lightly shelfworn dust-jacket of equal condition; J.In The Faith Instinct, Nicholas J. Wade explores how religion evolved and why it persists.

He then looks at the historical record and shows how religious beliefs have been adaptive in the face of challenges and dangers. Finally, Wade offers a new way of understanding the role of religion in human societies, arguing that it is not just a source of comfort or moral guidance, but also a mechanism for social cohesion and cooperation. The Faith Instinct is a groundbreaking book that will reshape our understanding of religion and its importance in human societies.; 8vo; 310 pages .
