Publisher's Synopsis

This book traces the unitary source of all of the world's major religions. The book underscores the fact that there are many ways in which humanity has sought revelation of God, yet there is a common inspiration behind humanity's God concept.

The author's analysis of world religions or faiths adopts a multi-interdisciplinary approach taking the reader through historical, anthropological, archaeological, and theological viewpoints to make juxtapositions.

God in us is a rich resource that helps the readers understand the origins of human civilisation and how humans began to worship God, domesticate animals like sheep, invent astrology and create languages. Biko's research also delves deeper into unveiling African indigenous knowledge systems and science that predate the arrival of the colonisers on the African soil.
