Reviews
"""Four Wise Men offers a compelling and provocative comparative study of extraordinarily gifted leaders whose lives and teachings not only shaped great world religions, they provided invaluable, timeless guides for how to live well even in the face of great adversity. Many who know Mark Muesse from his popular contributions to The Great Courses have already discovered his rare gifts as a teacher-scholar able to reach a wide audience. Four Wise Men is a superb, yet accessible resource for college and divinity students, book clubs, serious adult study programs in churches, and a wide range of interested non-specialists. I'll be using this book in courses on Comparative Religion for many years to come!"" CHARLES KIMBALL, Presidential Professor and Director of The Religious Studies, University of Oklahoma; Author of When Religion Becomes Evil: Five Warning Signs"
