Delving into the different problems and solutions that Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Confucianism, Yoruba Religion, Daoism and Atheism  strive to combat, \u003cem\u003eGod is Not One\u003c\/em\u003e is an indispensable guide to the questions human beings have asked for millennia—and to the disparate paths we are taking to answer them today.
