Ask HN: What's the best book on religion?

maybe Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

The Bible

the book of Acts in the Bible

Richard Dawkins "The God Delusion"

The God Delusion gives a good overview of many aspects.

I'd recommend "The Righteous Mind" by Jonathan Haidt as some pre-work.

Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan too.

But for me, it's Bhagvad Gita

The Quran.

Bible, Koran, Vedas, Buddhist Canons

The Quran, away from the religion it self, its authenticity is out of this world

Quran for Islam

I hear very good things about C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity too, but I've never read it.

A Little History of the World by Ernst Gombrich

Torah, Bible, Koran, Vedas

Bible for Christianity
