A History of God: The 4,000-Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam by Karen Armstrong

5.0

Outstanding survey-type overview of the history and theology of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam). Armstrong's ability to synthesize the information in ways which demonstrate the complexity of the relationship within these three faiths is amazing. This book is definitely not an introductory text written for the novice. It's a densely packed academic work, which will open a world of knowledge and questions to those interested in a deeper look at the Abrahamic traditions.
