About this book
Shaw's long preface to his 1912 play Androcles and the Lion argues that the teaching of Jesus has never had a fair trial. Its sections go through the four Gospels in turn, then Paul and the Acts of the Apostles. Along the way it turns to salvation and atonement, to the equal sharing of income, and to marriage and the family. It also asks why Jesus counts for more than other teachers and what Christianity would mean if applied in modern practice.
