&#8220;A daring and thought-provoking book: Nothing you thought about the great monotheistic religions will ever look quite the same again.&#8221; &#8212;Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods&#8220;The Laughing Jesus is a manifesto for Gnostic mysticism. Freke and Gandy&#8217;s exposition of Gnostic enlightenment is lucid and accessible; their critique of Literalist religion is damningly severe.&#8221; &#8212;Robert M. Price, professor of scriptural studies, Johnnie Colemon Theological Seminary, and editor of The Journal of Higher Criticism&#8220;The Laughing Jesus should be considered not merely a good read, although it is, but also a matter of burning urgency, for this is one of the most important books that has emerged in this infant millennium.&#8221; &#8212;Larry Dossey, M.D., author of The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things

"Until this volume, there has been no single book written that relates the history and life style of one of the Iroquois peoples with the encompassing depth and breadth of knowledge, clarity, and interest that the subject deserves. Finally, this book does it for the Seneca. It is enthralling history, told in a knowledgeable, highly readable way."-- Alvin M. Joseph, Jr., author of The Indian Heritage of America"This book is at once troubling and richly textured; for it draws skillfully and impartially on the resources of history, ethnology and psychology to chronicle the agony and decline of one of the proudest of American Indian peoples."-- Morris Opler Book World"Here is a carefully crafted masterpiece of anthropological and historical investigation. It is about both the specific renaissance of the Seneca and the possible renaissance of any people. On its specific subject matter, it will probably remain the definitive study for a long time."-- Christian Science Monitor

"This closely argued and beautifully written book is a brilliant statement as to why archaeology, and an archaeological perspective, are of central importance in today&rsquo;s world. . . .&#160; It&rsquo;s a clich&eacute; these days to remark that a book belongs on everyone&rsquo;s bookshelves, but in this case it&rsquo;s the truth. Everyone interested in the past and the future will find this a wonderful starting point for their thinking. Above all, it talks about archaeology in fluent and jargon-free language that will appeal to a very broad audience indeed. This isn&rsquo;t a book about the romance of archaeology or spectacular discoveries. It&rsquo;s, quite simply, the best essay on archaeology I&rsquo;ve ever read. I hope it becomes a classic."

'Amy Peterson's reflective, impassioned book is for anyone who, like me, both loves the evangelical Christian movement in which you were raised and also grieves its compromises and inconsistencies. It is one of the most genuinely hopeful books I've ever read: clear-eyed about Christian complicity in evil, resolute in its determination to recover the good in spite of the church's failures, and visionary in its attempt to imagine a better future.'
