Book Reviews of The Rise of Christianity: How the Obscure, Marginal, Jesus Movement Became the Dominant Religious Force ....
Book Review: A Great Work by Stark
Summary: 5 Stars
Combining the knowledge of an Einstein and the gifts of a Feynman, Rodney Stark makes a compelling case for the rise of Christianity in this book. It is one of the most authoritative yet simple accounts that I have read, in which essential facts are presented unobfuscated by uneccessary details. One of the books that leave a lasting impression on the reader, The Rise of Christianity is a great work in itself, comparable to Bertrand Russell's The Principles of Philosophy.
