Drawing on history and popular culture, biblical research and everyday beliefs, this book offers a new understanding of one of the most cherished ideals of spiritual life. Lisa Miller discusses our visions of the afterlife and how those beliefs have influenced our societies and lifestyles; she explores the root of beliefs in heaven and how these have evolved throughout the ages to offer comfort and hope, and how they have been manipulated - both as inspiration for goodness and justification for mass murder. Felt-tip mark on upper trimmed edge. American cut pages.
