Karen Armstrong traces the themes and meanings of these stories, examining what they can still tell us about the human quest for meaning. Both humble and generous, Karen Armstrong argues forcefully that we have to struggle for the meanings embedded in the often mysterious text, much as Jacob wrestled all night with God in the shape of an angel Independent written with passion and insight…Ms Armstrong has taken a familiar biblical story and made it relevant to our deepest and darkest concerns…a little masterpiece worthy of being a long-treasured companion to the ancient classic she celebrates Washington Post Praise for A History of God : An invigorating, unpretentious, sympathetic history… It is hard to imagine anybody who wont learn a good deal about world culture and present discontents from this book Observer Praise for The Case for God : One of our best living writers on religion….prodigiously sourced, passionately written Financial Times Also by Karen Armstrong: [jpeg of A History of God ]; [jpeg of The Case for God ] Author Biography Karen Armstrong is one of the worlds leading commentators on religious affairs.
