No god but God

I saw this author at a book reading here in Portland. I love his outlook and where he comes from (I know; don't finish a sentence with a preposition, but writing it correctly sounded too “over the top”). Aslan has a fresh perspective and does yeoman's work summarizing the history of the prophet's life, as well as the growth of the religion. While I think he payed too much heed to some current era conspiracy theories toward the end, the book was very well written and definately worth the read.
