145 misconceptions about Christianity are argued against in an accessible and philosophical way. Myth Busted! is a unique and engaging work of apologetics that seeks to convince readers about the claims of Christianity whilst debunking the layers of myths and assumptions that might have grown around its kernel. An encyclopaedic attempt at getting to answers to the questions that often get in the way. 'This is Christian apologetics at its best - compelling, readable, convincing and informed. Distortions, myths and lazy assumptions are all challenged. Encyclopaedic in scope, all the major questions are considered. Jeffrey Burton Russell demonstrates exceptional competence and mastery of the literature. What C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity did in the 1940s, Jeffrey Burton Russell has done for us. For those seeking and for those who doubt, this is a must-read book.' Ian Markham, president and professor of theology, Virginia Theological Seminary, USA
