Publisher's Synopsis

""The Descent of Fire"" is a philosophical book written by John Fiske. In this book, Fiske discusses the evolution of human society and the development of religious beliefs. He argues that the concept of God and the idea of a divine being have evolved over time, from the earliest forms of animism and polytheism to the more complex monotheistic religions of today. Fiske also explores the role of science and reason in shaping our understanding of the world around us, and how these ideas have challenged traditional religious beliefs. Throughout the book, Fiske provides a thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between religion, science, and human progress. ""The Descent of Fire"" is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of religion and the evolution of human thought.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Myths and Myth Makers, by John Fiske.
