This is an exhilarating book. It is not every day that you encounter a person of Richard Holloway's experience wrestling with the very foundations of his chosen way of life. This in itself gives the book a tone of urgency * * Scotsman * *
With imagination and audacity, Richard Holloway's Doubts and Loves offers a fearless critique of the faith, with uncertainty and disbelief accorded full dignity * * Sunday Herald * *
Holloway's latest book is engaging, accessible, informative, sensible and compassionate. One of the fascinating things about Doubts and Loves is the light it sheds on the writer. The picture that emerges of Richard Holloway is of an intelligent, learned, very decent man, struggling to find his way through the absurdities, anachronisms and cruelties of the faith that has been at the very centre of his life * * Sunday Herald * *
