Reviews

This is a delightful and unusual book; delightful because the author wears his learning lightly, as he speculates about the nature of religious beliefs in early Ireland; and unusual, because its topic, theology in the broadest sense (the nature of God, man and the universe), is rarely broached among contemporary scholars of early Christian Ireland. ... Elegantly written and beautifully printed, this book is a welcome addition to the field of early Irish studies. - Padraig P. O'Neill, Eigse.
