FOUR OTHER GOSPELS THOMAS, EGERTON, SECRET MARK, PETER. John Dominic Crossan is professor of Biblical Studies at DePaul University, Chicago. He is the author of many books, including "The Cross That Spoke", winner of the American Academy of Religion Award for Excellence, "The Historical Jesus", a religion bestseller and "In Parables", reprinted in a new edition. FOUR OTHER GOSPELS "…Simply breathtaking…,can hardly fail to convince the open minded. Gospel studies--and hence studies about Jesus and the origins of Christianity--should never be the same again." James M. Robinson "I found FOUR OTHER GOSPELS fascinating and incisive. . . . Here is a book that splendidly exemplifies the new possibilities for research that integrates canonical and extra canonical sources." Elaine Pagel ". . . An important contribution to the ongoing discussion of the relation of non-canonical gospels to the four gospels; written with clarity, creativity and an attractive style, this is a book of intriguing speculation leading to new insights." George MacRae, SJ
