Unlike many philosophical atheists, Julian Baggini is prepared to give close and sensitive attention to the Christian Gospels, challenging us to reflect on how far their luminous moral riches can be salvaged within a secularist framework -- John Cottingham, Professor Emeritus, University of Reading and Professor of Philosophy of Religion University of Roehampton A superbly lucid and emotionally involving account of the New Testament story, full of thought-provoking insights for atheists, agnostics and believers alike -- Sarah Bakewell The Godless Gospel is simply stunning. Once again, Baggini shows that philosophical writing can be nuanced, erudite, and brilliantly accessible at the same time. In our uneasy age we need philosophers who engage vitally with audiences yearning for meaningful debate: Baggini is leading the vanguard -- Joanna Kavenna The Godless Gospel is a riveting account not of religious belief but of the wisdom of one of the world's greatest moral philosophers... Baggini's great gift is to be able to explain the most complex philosophical and theological arguments in language we can all easily understand... generous and warm -- Gavin Esler
