Dying for Heaven

In <em>Dying for Heaven</em> Georgetown scholar and advisor to the defense community Ariel Glucklich explains the religious motivation of terrorism. This provocative work of political science argues that the very best qualities of religion--its ability to make people feel good and bring them together--are in fact its most dangerous. Glucklich author of <em>Sacred Pain</em> and <em>Climbing Chamundi Hill </em> offers a new understanding of religion and provides a vision for preventing further religiously-inspired violence.
