Review: I found this book exceptionally horrible. I fell asleep at the end of every paragraph. I nearly killed my myself as I reached the middle of the book as I waited to find Monsiure Elshtain's point. I came to the conclusion that Nevertheless, I concur with Harvard professor Mary Ann Glendon's observation that Elshtain's "exploration of Augustine's implicit cognitnive theory... (is) especially interesting." Beavis Ramesh Esquir
