In a Darwinian world, religious behavior - just like other
behaviors - is likely to have undergone a process of natural
selection in which it was rewarded in the evolutionary currency of
reproductive success. This book aims to provide a better
understanding of the social scenarios in which selection pressure
led to religious practices becoming an evolved human trait, i.e. an
adaptive answer to the conditions of living and surviving that
prevailed among our prehistoric ancestors. This aim is pursued by a
team of expert authors from a range of disciplines. Their
contributions examine the relevant physiological, emotional,
cognitive and social processes. The resulting understanding of the
functional interplay of these processes gives valuable insights
into the biological roots and benefits of religion.
