Basil Mathew's excellent stories about several of the most famous
and revered Christian missionaries form a lively and engaging
history of missionary work. This book is written as a set of tales
with characters from all around the world. Missionaries preaching
the Christian doctrines are depicted in the midst of their
adventures, convincing indigenous peoples of the one, true God.
Dialogue and captivating descriptions of the local cultures confer
a vibrant, vivid and captivating essence to the text. This book is
a colorful history of Christian missionary activities in far-flung
places. The text is divided into four principle parts, each of
which focus on a particular locale where missionary activity was
frequent over the centuries.
Taking us on an incredible journey across centuries and galaxies,
accompanied by his characteristic wit, Professor Luke O'Neill
explains how it all began, how it all will end and everything in
between. Readers will benefit from Luke's insatiable curiosity for
life when they dive into this ultimate journey through life and
death. Among many fascinating facts, you'll discover the science
behind how we got to be so smart, why sex with a caveman was a good
idea, the science of finding love, why we follow religions, and how
robots will become part of everyday life. Humanology is a humbling
reminder that we're just a small speck in a big universe - so sit
back and embrace the adventure. 'A man who can explain 4.2 billion
years of life on Earth and make me laugh at the same time - sheer
genius.' Pat Kenny, Newstalk
