Last week I just finished 'Religion Explained' by Pascal Boyer - and it is indeed quite good explanation - I recommend that book. In short the theory presented there is about religion as a kind of side effect of having brains trained for what was needed to live. It is quite convincing, maybe a bit falling into the false dichotomy path by trying to present itself as the sole and only theory - while the reasoning there does not in fact eliminate other mechanism adding to the trend of evolving a religious attitude.
