Burton L. Mack, Emeritus Professor of Early Christianity at the Claremont School of Theology, is the author of A Myth of Innocence: Mark and Christian Origins; The Lost Gospel: Q and Christian Origins; and Who Wrote the New Testament: The Making of the Christian Myth.
"His book reminds the church that the New Testament is a book one
needs to learn how to read, and that the extravagant claims of
Christianity are not honoured when accompanied by cultural
imperialism. And faith in the person of Jesus is a precarious and
astonishing gift - not a self-evident truth to be read off the page
of the Gospels."
Church Times 11/10/02
"This is a well researched and documented study of Christian
origins....this is a book that theological libraries should
have."
Catholic Library World, 7/02
