15 Questions. Is There Anyone up There? – vol. 5

Non-Fiction

The book that explains everything about religion

What is the spirit? Who is God? Why does evil exist? In this volume of the 15 Questions series, the big questions of religion become accessible, engaging, and deeply human. Guided by Vito Mancuso—one of Italy’s most respected theologians and philosophers—readers embark on a journey through the world’s religions: how they were born, how they evolve, and what questions they try to answer. This is not a book about one religion, but about the many religions born from the human need for meaning, salvation, and connection to life itself. There are far more than kids might imagine—and they are constantly changing.

  • A book that encourages reflection and dialogue between different faiths, in a secular and inclusive way.
  • Full-color illustrations, info boxes, comics, and anecdotes make the format lively and fun to explore.
