The Christians

Bamber Gascoigne informs us that the title of The Christians is particularly important: it's about Christians, not quite so much about Christianity. He is not interested in examining specific doctrines or in attempting to make a case for or against the validity of Christianity. This book deals with how Christians have carried out their beliefs, and examines the remarkable way in which Christianity has played a role in society over the course of the past 2000 years in different parts of the world.
