Wilson has been thinking about the Bible, and reading it, since he \u003cbr\u003e\nread theology for a year at university. Martin Luther King was 'reading the \u003cbr\u003e\nBible' when he started the Civil Rights movement. When Michelangelo painted \u003cbr\u003e\nthe fresco cycles in the Sistine Chapel, he was 'reading the Bible'. In The \u003cbr\u003e\nBook of the People A. N. Wilson explores how readers and thinkers have \u003cbr\u003e\napproached the Bible, and how it might be read today. Charting his own \u003cbr\u003e\nrelationship with the Bible over a lifetime of writing, Wilson argues that \u003cbr\u003e\nit remains relevant even in a largely secular society, as a philosophical \u003cbr\u003e\nwork, a work of literature and a cultural touchstone that the western world \u003cbr\u003e\nhas answered to for nearly two thousand years. He challenges the way \u003cbr\u003e\nfundamentalists - whether believers or non-believers - have misused the \u003cbr\u003e\nBible, either by neglecting and failing to recognize its cultural \u003cbr\u003e\nsignificance, or by using it as a weapon against those with whom they \u003cbr\u003e\ndisagree. Erudite, witty and accessible, The Book of the People seeks to \u003cbr\u003e\nreclaim the Good Book as our seminal work of literature, and a book for the \u003cbr\u003e\nimagination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATLANTIC BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42978564079782,"sku":"9781848879607","price":19.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/8471\/4918\/products\/the-book-of-the-people-how-to-read-the-bible-9781848879607-31515081441458.jpg?v=1656107939","url":"https:\/\/bookxcess.myshopify.com\/products\/the-book-of-the-people-9781848879607","provider":"Staging Site ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
