Reviews

...strives mightily and most impressively with the thesis that art can restore meaning to life after the 'demise' of religion...This book is chock full of edifying loops and excursions. Jerome Gellman Mind Vol 118 October 2009


`Review from previous edition This is a remarkable book...The book sets down a challenge to those of us involved in aesthetics and the arts-particularly to those of us who are not participants in religious ceremonies and who who are not members of religious communities. It is highly readable and rewarding; and full of argument and generosity to those against whom the author takes issue. I repeat: this is a remarkable book. ' Edward Winters, British Journal of Aesthetics
