Valutazione del libro
Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In this book, Justin Barrett, drawing on his expertise in the science of religious cognition, compiles the most notable experimental scientific research conducted over the past twenty years on children aged 9 months to a few years. He presents astonishing results that confirm that all children are born with the cognitive tools that enable them to believe in a creator distinct from humans with great power, and how analyzing children's thinking reveals their way of inferring the existence of a creator from the simplest mental axioms, such as the relationship of causality in things.
