Table of ContentsReviewsAs Debray has read everything that one should read on this subject, trust him. If you have forgotten the origins of the Tower of Babel, if you don't remember the travels of St. Paul, or if you don't know the historic structure of the Roman Curia, his book will get you up to speed. It is not even out of the question that it might make you reread that old unusable classic: the Bible. Because far from losing himself in the thicket of erudition, Debray knows how to touch on the essential. -- Le Monde [Debray's account] is very well done, engaging, both impertinent and respectful ... Debray is without doubt the writer who best combines verbal brio with the demands of academic discourse. - Le Nouvel Observer From beginning to end, Regis Debray's demonstration is dazzling. - Lire Author InformationRégis Debray teaches philosophy at the Université de Lyon-III and is director of the European Institute of the History and Science of Religion.
