Karen Armstrong is the author of nearly 20 books on religion. "The Great Transformation" charts the origins of many of the world's great religions in the so-called "Axial Age." Armstrong tells Steve Paulson that traditions from Confucianism to Judaism emerged as responses to the rampant violence of their time. And she says our own time has a lot in common with that age.
