A Brilliant History of Christianity,
By
This review is from: Christianity in India: Two Thousand Years of Faith (Paperback)
Fernando and Gispert-Sauch have produced a book which is not just a history of Indian Christianity but valuable for anyone who wants an easy-to-read insight into this religious tradition. There is not a patronizing line in it. It presumes the intelligence of the reader in India in particular, no matter their religious tradition, affiliation, or lack thereof. But it is also valuable for universal readership. A second edition would benefit from a glossary of the Indian terms used in the book but other than that it gives succinct explanations not only of Christian history but of its theology and philosophy as well.I had the opportunity to meet one of the co-authors at a conference in Nagpur, India, on January 7, 2005, and he is as pleasant and competent in person as the material in the book is presented in a delightful and insightful manner. I recommend the book with no reservations at all. Catherine Berry Stidsen, Ph.D., Cayuga, Ontario, Canada |
