About the Book

God's Facebook is a story of the evolution of human thought on God. It is the first ever chronological presentation of 5,000 years of God's words and human thoughts on God in a single volume. It spans all religious faiths-ancient and modern-as well as the faiths of atheism and agnosticism. A magical journey through the mental landscape of humans from 2500 BC to 2012 AD, it traces the evolution of God in different continents, from the river banks of the Nile to the megalopolises on the shores of the Atlantic. Anyone who is interested in discovering the transcendent harmony among all religions would enjoy the book. The fascinating metamorphosis of God through the ages is captured in the "Holy Wall" and "Wall of Mortals" by arranging the quotations chronologically and by providing "Status Updates" for each human era. The "Notes from History" highlights the key socio-political events during the historical period so that a reader can connect a quote with its historical background. Key messages from the scriptures of ten major religions are presented to capture the transcendent harmony of all religions, while comparisons of scriptures from the three largest faiths (Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism) throughout the book provide a beacon of hope for a world torn by religious fundamentalism. The collection of quotations is enormous and represents a wide spectrum - devotional, thoughtful, blasphemous, silly, provocative, cute, and simply funny. To break the monotony of reading quote after quote, the author has interspersed, throughout the book, numerous "Coffee Break" notes to heighten a reader's appreciation and enjoyment of the preceding or following quotes. Many fascinating topics are covered in special sections to demonstrate how God has influenced our lives and thoughts in myriad ways; these topics include, "God and the Holocaust", "God and Mysticism", "Gods of Ancient Greece", "Harry Potter and God", "God in the White House", "Trial of God", "Good without God", "The Man Who Sued God", "God and a Comedy Writer", "Insanity of Religions", and "Spinoza's God". The opinions of 70 Nobel Laureates on God and religion are presented for the first time in a single volume in chronological order with insightful anecdotes and notes, such as "Einstein's God" and "Tagore's God." God's Facebook presents a new paradigm for interfaith dialogues to create a Friendship of Civilizations, not a Clash of Civilizations, in a terror-ridden world. The book has significant utility as a sourcebook of interfaith dialogues. The book consists of 14 chapters: Chapter 1 - God, Man and Facebook; Chapter 2 - God's Song of Myself; Chapter 3 - God is Born (250,000 to 2000 BC) Chapter 4 - God Gives Us Religions (2000 to 1000 BC) Chapter 5 - God of Prophets, Philosophers, and Poets (1000 BC to 1 AD) Chapter 6 - God Speaks (1 to 1000 AD) Chapter 7 - God of Believers, Unbelievers, and Mystics (1000 to 1700 AD) Chapter 8 - God is Dead (1700 to 1900 AD) Chapter 9 - God is Back (1900 to 2012 AD) Chapter 10 - God of Nobel Laureates Chapter 11 - God of Children and Teenagers Chapter 12 - God Gives Interviews Chapter 13 - God of Computers, Bloggers, and Twitterers Chapter 14 - God of the Future.
About the Author: Najmus Saquib received his Ph.D. in engineering from the University of California at Davis. A philosopher at heart, his primary interests are in social dynamics, comparative religion, and literature. Born in Bangladesh, he brings immensely rich cross-cultural perspectives through the personal experience of living in two continents among people of different faiths and cultures. He has written extensively on various topics since his adolescence. Dr. Saquib is equally gifted in both english and bengali, his native language. His writing is erudite and yet very entertaining. He founded an engineering consulting firm in California and ran it for more than a decade before merging it with a larger firm, of which he is a partner now. He lives in El Dorado Hills, California with his wife and two daughters.
