Konner to deliver lecture on faith and human nature on Tuesday, March 26


"Melvin J. Konner, Samuel Candler Dobbs Professor of Anthropology and Behavioral Biology at Emory, will present this year’s John F. Morgan Sr. Distinguished Faculty Lecture.

Konner will speak on “Believers: Faith in Human Nature,” which is also the title of his forthcoming book, on Tuesday, March 26, at 5 p.m. in the Presentation Room of the Oxford Road Building.

The lecture, immediately followed by a reception, is free and open to the public, but space is limited. 

Konner’s lecture will be a preview of his new book, to be published in September, which explores the psychology, development, brain science, evolution and even genetics of the varied religious impulses we as a species experience."
