An Introduction to Christianity (Introduction to Religion)
"The only thing misleading about Linda Woodhead's Introduction to Christianity is its over-modest title. While it does indeed provide a highly readable overview of the religion for beginners, it also has a huge amount to offer readers who already know a good deal about the topic. Dr. Woodhead impresses by her knowledge of history and politics as well as theology and conventional `religious studies' approaches - not to mention her admirable sense of fairness throughout. This lucidly written Introduction deserves the widest possible audience."    Philip Jenkins, Distinguished Professor of History and Religious Studies, Pennsylvania State University"A lively and well-written introduction to the subject."   CHOICE May 2005
