Book Synopsis
Marilyn Dunn is Senior Lecturer in Medieval History at the University of Glasgow, UK

Trade Review
Marilyn Dunn interrogates familiar sources from the perspective of cognitive anthropology, and, in so doing, moves the reader beyond an external account of events and people towards illuminative and evidenced insight into how people reacted to the introduction of Christianity socially, politically and personally. This exciting approach opens up a new framework for understanding these first encounters with the new religion, and adds a fresh dimension to our understanding of a period of profound change. -- Professor Judith George, Senior Research Fellow in Classics, The Open University, UK
