Reviews

This is a distinguished book by a first-class scholar who has mastered a huge mass of material and tells a story where both the religious ideas and the human interest are gripping stuff. The densely packed information is skillfully presented so that one never loses sight of the shape of the whole. --The Times Higher Education Supplement
