5.0 out of 5 stars Intellectual but pleasant confusion, 27 Mar 1998
By A Customer
Reading Freud is always a pleasure, especially his essays on Religion and Culture. His style is so refined and clear, that I have often wondered if it wasn't one of the reasons for the wide approval he received. The strange thing in reading about the origin of a religion is that it confuses and forces you to start from 'tabula rasa'. Being raised a Catholic, I can't help but 'subconciously believing' Jewish religion older than Moses, whereas Freud claims that he started it. But the confusion is very enlightening and intellectually tantalizing. Although much of his views on the Egyptian origin of the name 'Moses' have been scientifically doubted, the book is still powerful enough to make you think. And that, I believe, is a rare quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant and capitivating essay on monotheism., 13 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This is one of the best books I have ever read. It's a page turner -- a brilliant uncovering of the historical Moses. This book is also so affecting because Freud wrote it right before and during the holocaust. The background that he is writing from is part of the drama of the book. Read this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep and meaningful, 5 Jul 2009
By D. P. Jacob "Old Jake" (Bridlington) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Mr Freud digs deep beneath the foundations of the Hebrew religion and hence the Christian one. I'm not convinced he is right in some of his conclusions but there is a great deal of food for thought here, as is usual with this brilliant and often misunderstood man.
