Review Quotes: "Atheism in Christianity contends that the raging prophets were more the friends of humanity than the 'positivist eunuchs' of official atheism--and the case for prophecy and rage is made amply in this heady, dizzying book."
--Owen Hatherley, New Humanist

"Ernst Bloch is the one mainly responsible for restoring honour to the word 'utopia.'"
--Theodor Adorno

"Bloch is not so much a Marxist philosopher ... as he is rather a 'theologian of the revolution.'"
--Fredric Jameson
