A History of God

*A History of God* by Karen Armstrong explores the evolving concepts of the divine across Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It traces how human understanding of God has developed through history—from ancient fears and tribal gods to more personal and abstract notions of the divine. The book examines key moments of religious change, such as the move from polytheism to monotheism and the influence of philosophical thought. Ultimately, it highlights how ideas of God reflect cultural, social, and spiritual shifts, offering insight into how religions have shaped human history and continue to influence our worldview.
