Sommario/riassunto

Praise for the Previous Edition Meticulous and memorable, Christianity: An Introduction (second edition) takes us on a breathtaking journey, and readers of all kinds will enjoy the ride. Darren J. N. Middleton, Texas Christian University The finest text of its kind available. It is encyclopaedic in scope, reliable and quite accessible to the non-specialist. In this second edition, an already solid resource is made even more valuable." David L. Johns, Earlham School of Religion
