He went to the Amazon to save a lost tribe. Instead, they saved him-by destroying everything he believed.What would it take to shatter your most deeply held beliefs? For Daniel Everett, a dedicated Christian missionary, the answer was found in the deepest reaches of the Amazon jungle, among a people who would change the course of his life and the landscape of modern science.This is the gripping, true story of a man who journeyed into a world untouched by time. His mission: to translate the Bible for the Pirahã, a mysterious and isolated tribe. But what he discovered was a culture and a language so radically different from our own that it defied all he had been taught. The Pirahã lived without numbers, without a concept of God, without a creation myth, and without any need for the salvation he offered. Their language, a complex system of whistles, hums, and tones, lacked the one feature that scientists believed was universal to all humanity.Faced with a reality that his faith and his science could not explain, Everett was forced on an agonizing journey of discovery. He would have to choose between the dogma he was sent to preach and the undeniable evidence before his eyes-a choice that would cost him his God, his community, and his thirty-five-year marriage."The Man Who Lost God and Found Language" is more than a biography; it is a raw, unflinching account of intellectual and spiritual transformation.
