I not only read Religion and Rational Choice but another book called Brief Essays and Further Rhymes by a man named William Bacon Evans, also about religion and its role in our daily lives. For some reason, Bacon's book is not here on GR so I'm combining the reviews. Both were interesting in their own separate ways; Thakur's book is much more academic (he's a college professor so that makes sense) but it is also lucid and clear to anyone, such as myself, who is not a theologian. What I particularly found interesting was the religions of the world that don't necessarily believe in God or gods but still practice a religion. Bacon's book is also an interesting read, with different thoughts on God, religion, and the people who believe. Would recommend both.
