The Great Transformation by Karen Armstrong
The centuries between 800 and 300 BC saw an explosion of new religious concepts. But why did Socrates, Buddha, Confucius, Jeremiah, Lao Tzu and all others emerge in this five-hundred-year span? In this book, the author examines this period and the connections between this disparate group of philosophers, mystics, and theologians.
