Given the author's academic pedigree and the pre-press reviews, I must say I'm mildly disappointed. There is little here that any educated person with more than a passing interest in the topic wouldn't be familiar with, though many will welcome the sections on Orthodoxy. Some too will find MacCulloch's inability to mask his distaste for Roman Catholicism to be both mildly irritating and a source of concern regarding his general level of objectivity... I won't read it twice.Get more detail about Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years.
