In this groundbreaking volume, J. Anderson Thomson, Jr., MD, with Clare Aukofer, offers a succinct yet comprehensive study of how and why the human mind generates religious belief. Dr. Thomson, a highly respected practicing psychiatrist with credentials in forensic psychiatry and evolutionary psychology, methodically investigates the components and causes of religious belief in the same way any scientist would investigate the movement of astronomical bodies or the evolution of life over time--that is, as a purely natural phenomenon. Providing compelling evidence from psychology, the cognitive neurosciences, and related fields, he, with Ms. Aukofer, presents an easily accessible and exceptionally convincing case that god(s) were created by man--not vice versa. With this slim volume, Dr. Thomson establishes himself as a must-read thinker and leading voice on the primacy of reason and science over superstition and religion.

Good quality but sizing is not accurate
Color: Black, Size: Medium
The vest looks really nice and the fabric feels like good quality, so no complaints there. However, the sizing was not accurate based on the measurements provided. I ordered according to the size chart, but it didn’t fit as expected, so I had to return it. If you’re planning to buy it, I would recommend double checking or maybe sizing up to be safe. Overall, the product itself seems well made, but the sizing issue was disappointing.
