I picked this book up because it had a really interesting premise: The long dormant teachings of Aristotle--translated by the Ottoman's--had been re-discovered by the Crusaders, brought back to Europe and, contrary to what one would expect, embraced by the early Catholic Church. Throughout the book he highlights important theologians and how they interpreted The Philosopher's teachings along with what had been up to that time considered to be traditional Christian ideals.
Unfortunately, despite the detail, there was something lacking in the delivery. The book was well-written; however, at close to 300 pages may have been too long. Rubenstein had a great premise and undoubtedly I did learn some things previously unknown, but I can only recommend this book along with caveat against lofty expectations.
