A monumental new history of Christianity from its beginnings as a persecuted cult, up to its present day international diversity. 'A model of condensation without simplification' - J.M Coetzee 'Clear and balanced. A triumph of compression... invaluable as a work of reference for students' - Karen Armstrong, Times 'A new and ambitious concept in presenting Christian history...a triumph. Never before, I suspect, has this cavalcade of thinkers been presented in a manner which so successfully combines depth, breadth, and succinctness' - Gerard Noel, Catholic Herald
A Plausible explanation of how prehistoric societies could have developed astronomical observatories such as Stonehenge for practical reasons
—— Sunday TimesThe book is superb... the insights that it opens in a series of varied fields, tying them in logically to each other, is very lucid
—— Howie Firth, Director of the Orkney Science FestivalA symbol of serenity, a spiritual leader second only to the Pope
—— IndependentHe draws crowds that no other spiritual leader or politician could hope to match...he seems to look at life in a different way to everyone else
—— The Times
