A History of God
Author: Karen ArmstrongSynopsis: The idea of a single divine being - God, Yahweh, Allah- has existed for over 4000 years. In this account of the evolution of belief Armstrong examines Western society's unerring fidelity to this idea of one God and the many conflicting convictions it engenders.
Comments: Fascinating historical study of the idea of God. Learned a lot and derived much thought from it.

The idea of one God failed miserably to unite people Claudia,
caused so much of bloodshed.
Failed even within one community, Catholics, protestants Shias and sunnis have been killing each other for hundreds of years.
Looks like an interesting book
