Query: Useful book but not up-to-date

Honestly I am rather disappointed with this book. Though the title sounds great, "The Origin and Evolution of Religion", the treatment of the subject matter is limited and has not taken into consideration many of the new developments in the field. This is perhaps the biggest drawback of the book. Nevertheless it is a useful book to trace the origin of religion. I would give the book two stars out of five, if I am permitted to rate it.I could not trace the year of publication of the book. This has created problem in assessing how old it is.Jose Kuruvachira
