1.		Lost Christianities: The Battles for Scripture and the Faiths we Never Knew: The Battles for Scripture and the Faiths We Never Knew from OUP USA Price: £6.29 Customer Review: The "Lost Christianities" of Bart Ehrman is a very neutral description of the Christian history of the first 3 centuries AD. Ehrman has no axe to grind with competing scholars no dogmatic bias, just the open minded attempt to describe the different streams of Christianities before the orthodox were... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		Lost Scriptures: Books That Did Not Make It into the New Testament from OUP USA Price: £6.99 Customer Review: This is a great book for those looking for an introduction into the books that did not make it into the New Testament. I really thought that 1 Clemment was helpful. The down side is that the books are edited. Type is a big small also. A good buy.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why (Plus) from HarperOne Customer Review: There's a joke about a new monk at a scriptorium innocently asking an older monk about a particular word. The old monk has been happily copying from copies for years, but humours the novice by going into the cellar to check the original. Hours go by and nobody sees him. Eventually, they hear sobbing... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Whose Word is It?: The Story Behind Who Changed the New Testament and Why from Continuum International Publishing Group Ltd. Price: £9.09 Customer Review: This is essentially an account of one Bible scholar's growing disenchantment with the concept of `inspiration' as applied to the New Testament (NT). And though scholarly, it's extremely readable. Ehrman is especially good at taking the reader through the development of the manuscript-copying... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		God's Problem: How the Bible Fails to Answer Our Most Important Question--Why We Suffer from HarperOne Price: £11.88 Customer Review: Having myself done a degree in theology and since "deconverted" (to borrow an Ehrman term!), I read some of Bart's earlier stuff whilst doing my degree, and have always rated him highly for his clarity of thought, his ability to express what he wants to get across, and his general approach to his... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		The Lost Gospel of Judas Iscariot: A New Look at Betrayer and Betrayed from OUP USA Price: £9.99 Customer Review: After reading "The Gospel of Judas", I was drawn to this book to help me make sense out of what I had read. I trusted that Ehrman could do that given the breadth and depth of his knowledge as I had found in previous books I had read by him including "Misquoting Jesus", "The Lost Christianities" and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why from HarperOne Price: £16.25 Customer Review: There's a joke about a new monk at a scriptorium innocently asking an older monk about a particular word. The old monk has been happily copying from copies for years, but humours the novice by going into the cellar to check the original. Hours go by and nobody sees him.

8.		The New Testament: A Historical Introduction to the Early Christian Writings from OUP USA Price: £31.34 Customer Review: This book is quite well written and closely argued, but as an introduction to the subject matter it fails on at least one important level: Unlike, say, John Drane's "Introduction to the New Testament", it does not introduce us to a representative sample of scholarly thought. Instead it... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		Truth and Fiction in The Da Vinci Code: A Historian Reveals What We Really Know About Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and Constantine from OUP USA Price: £8.39 Customer Review: The style of this book has to be one of the most annoying - always promising to come back to something later. He also implies that the writers of first century texts had their biases (of course true) but implies that he doesn't. I doubt objectivity can be reached as much as he indicates. What did... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
