Wonderfully informative,
bold in generalization, and unabashed in demythologising . . A seminal
work, one destined to influence all similar studies for many years
to come (News Review of Books and Religion)
Though Death and Eternal
Life is patently a work of deep scholarship, possibly a landmark
study, the general reader will also find it a useful compendium
of world religions and philosophies (Publishers Weekly)
"Wonderfully informative,
bold in generalization, and unabashed in demythologising, Death
and Eternal Life is an educative venture of the first quality .
. A seminal work, one destined to influence all similar studies
for many years to come" (The New Review of Books and Religion)
"As a comprehensive evaluation of the theological
options, Death and Eternal Life is a considerable achievement, a
successful experiment in 'global theology', and likely the standard
philosophical discussion of the subject for some time to come"
(Kirkus Reviews)
" . . It is as timely as it is stimulating and
enlightening" (America)
