About this title

About the Author:

World-renowned philosopher, humorist, newspaper editor, and university rector, British writer Malcolm Muggeridge (1903–1990) is best known to American audiences for his book Something Beautiful for God (a classic biography of Mother Teresa that essentially introduced her to the West) and for his frequent appearances on Firing Line. A tart-tongued agnostic, Muggeridge was fascinated by the idea of faith, and eventually converted to Catholicism. But he never stopped searching or asking questions, which may explain his enduring appeal, which is often compared to that of his compatriots G. K. Chesterton and C. S. Lewis.

Review:

Muggeridge, a witty, skeptical observer of people and himself can be amusing, exasperating, or absurd...But he is never dull. -- Publishers Weekly
