Description
In her latest comparative study, Fields of Blood, Armstrong, one of today's leading historians of religion, and author of The Case for God, considers the roles violence has played in different faiths. Tracing the roots of Crusades, Jihads, and various non-violent practices, Armstrong looks back to humanity's earliest societies and shows how notions of the sacred were accommodated to or supplanted the warrior ethos.
