While this is an interesting grab bag overview of the Deity, it's too bad that Waugh has to maintain his insouciant public-schoolboy style throughout. It's a pity he couldn't manage just a little bit of personal wonder or reverence for his subject. Readers who would prefer something with a rather broader vision might try Professor Keith Ward's God--a guide for the perplexed. --Dwight Longenecker
'...peculiar and delightful...I loved it. It was the first book about religion to make me snigger...Waugh's light-hearted approach is deceptive: some formidable research has gone into this book.'
Douglas Kennedy
erudite, scholarly, irreverent and impeccably researched'
'Those of a worshipful disposition are advised to steer clear of this daringly brilliant and witty treatise as it may so enrage them that they will want to volunteer for the Spanish Inquisition. Meanwhile, anyone of an agnostic outlook is likely to be pushed to full-blown atheism.
