Negative Positive
Title: Revelation, the Religions, and Violence
Review: I was very disappointed with the book. After the initial excitement of the promise to "extend" Girard's understanding of mimetic violence to a multireligious context, I soon realized the limitations of the author's understanding (or rather misunderstanding) of Girard's most important thesis-the uniqueness of the Gospels and the Triumph of the Cross. Girard's understanding is therefore gutted by the author's approach.
Is the review positive or negative?
