“Matthew Tindal was the outstanding freethinker of his time, famous for writing what became known as the ‘Deists’ Bible’. Between the early 1690s and his death in 1733 Tindal made major contributions in various areas. As Deputy Judge Advocate of the Fleet he had a large influence on the case law on piracy. His timely pamphlet on the freedom of the press was hugely influential in the ending of the legal requirement that all publications be licensed before being printed. His book on the rights of the Christian Church had an immense impact on Church/state relations and on the growth of freethinking. Tindal’s Christianity as Old as the Creation in 1730 was the ultimate statement of the deist understanding of Chrstianity and was highly influential in England and on the Continent. Through Voltaire it profoundly affected the French freethinkers and following its translation into German it laid the foundations of hermeneutics. This is the first book ever devoted to Tindal, and it will be of considerable interest to readers across many disciplines.”–BOOK JACKET
